Project seeks to generate reflections on the problem of the World Cup being hosted in a country that criminalizes LGBTQIA+ people
The World Cup in Qatar started this Sunday (20th) and, along with the screams of fans for the teams, mingled with those of protest.
The country that hosts the World Cup is conservative and, during an interview, the commander of the Qatari security forces declared that the safety of LGBTQIAP+ people could not be guaranteed during the event and that public demonstrations with the rainbow flag are prohibited there. .
As is known, flags are a fundamental part of football and, with that in mind, Brech do Futebol launched a campaign to protest against LGBTophobia in the country.
The brand announced “Arsenal do Amor”, a collection of flags for people to express their pride in being who they are during the tournament with the LGBTQIAP+ symbol camouflaged in the colors of Brazil.
The idea of the project is to provoke and generate reflections on the problem of the World Cup being held in a country that criminalizes LGBTQIA+ people.
