“I turned Facebook off / to show how to be tough / There is so much stuff / that one poster is not enough”. This is the translation of the chorus of the song “Brasil em Cartaz” (Brazil in Posters), a kind of collective song and video clip [2] made ​​from phrases on posters on display during the protests in Brazil in this month of June.

The video clip [2] with this song has been posted on YouTube, and free downloadable MP3 [3] version is also available. The collaborative video also shows a roundup of images shared on social media about what was initially called the Vinegar Revolt [4]. See below a version with English subtitles.
