Cristina Nicholls described Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva as a man who lost a finger while working in a factory at 17 and who, as she wrote, dreamed of caring for his people and grew alongside them to become a figure supported by millions. She added that he was imprisoned, returned, and overcame his adversaries again. Nicholls said that Lula renewed the radical hope for which they fought with determination and dedicated poems, roses, and honey to him. #Esperanza #Lucha #Heroísmo (translated)
