Black July<\/a>, an international movement against racism, militarization and apartheid, organized by Rio de Janeiro favela movements and the mothers and relatives of victims of the State, held its sixth edition<\/a> in July 2021. The movement<\/a>, which began with an exchange with North American activists from Black Lives Matter in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, continues annually promoting an exchange between multiple countries. In 2021, Black July took place online between July 26 and 31, due to the coronavirus<\/a> pandemic.<\/p>\n

At 7pm, on the first day of the event, the \u201cWar for Whom?\u201d<\/em> roundtable was held along with the launch of David Amen<\/a>‘s mini documentary \u201cBlack July: Against Racism, Militarization and Apartheid<\/a><\/em>,\u201d produced for RioOnWatch<\/em>‘s anti-racist series<\/a>. The main objective of the 6th Black July program<\/a> was to connect struggles against militarization across the Global South.<\/p>\n
