2015 protests in Brazil
In early 2015, a series of protests began in Brazil against corruption and to denounce the government of President Dilma Rousseff.〔 The protests were triggered by revelations that numerous politicians, mostly from Brazil's Workers' Party, were being investigated for accepting bribes from the state-owned energy company Petrobras from 2003 to 2010, during which time Rousseff was on the company's board of directors. The initial protests occurred on March 15, with protestors generally estimated to number around a million,〔 while police stated 2,400,000 and organizers 3,000,000,〔 taking to the streets to protest the scandal, as well as the country's poor economic situation. In response, the government introduced anti-corruption legislation. A second day of major protesting occurred on April 12, with estimates of 696,000 protestors by police and 1,500,000 by organizers.〔 On August 16, protests were staged in all of Brazil’s 26 states, in 200 cities.
==Background==
In 2015, approval ratings for President Rousseff dropped to record lows due to a slowing economy, increasing unemployment, a weaker currency and rising inflation.〔 Higher class Brazilians stated that Rousseff could not manage the Brazilian economy, used class tensions for her political campaigning by stating her political opponents were "enemies of the poor" while the poor felt betrayed since she passed policies to avoid an investment-grade downgrade that supposedly hurt lower class Brazilians.〔
