Vinícius Jr, striker for Real Madrid and the Brazilian national team, continues to establish himself as an emblematic figure in the fight against racism. At a press conference before Brazil’s match against El Salvador, the 23-year-old player, often the victim of racist behavior in Spain, reaffirmed his commitment: “ I know my importance, I know that I can speak for those who have no strength. The time has come to put an end to all this
“, he said.
Netflix is preparing a documentary on its commitment
In recent months, his speeches and actions have led to legal sanctions, with several convictions handed down against individuals who committed racist acts against him. “ We have already managed to put three or four people in prison », he congratulated himself. The support of clubs, institutions like FIFA, and players around the world encourage him to continue this fight.
Vinícius Jr’s fight will also be immortalized in a Netflix documentary, planned for 2025. Initially designed to celebrate his journey as a football prodigy, the film will now focus on his role in the fight against racism. “ It’s a fight for everyone
», he insists, calling for collective mobilization to build a better future, particularly for younger generations.
