Stefan Rayer, a member of Sydney’s Brazilian community and activist with @sydneypelademocracia.
Gabriela Ortega, journalist with Papo Aberto Brazil
Isaac Nellist, Socialist Alliance candidate for the seat of Balmain in NSW elections.
The Brazilian community in Sydney organised multiple rallies in the lead up in the Brazilian presidential election on October 25 and helped to increase the vote amongst the Sydney diaspora for Lula from 55% in the first round to 62.2% in the second round.
Rayer will discuss how the Lula campaign managed to achieve victory against tremendous odds, and what lessons campaigners here can take away when campaigning against One Nation and other far right threats in Australia. Isaac Nellist will talk about the campaign in Australia against Pauline Hanson and One Nation, the struggle for socialism and against racism and bigotry.
