Bolsonaro's Racist Comments Lead to Fine

Former Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has been ordered to pay a large fine for making offensive, racist remarks.

He insulted a Black supporter's hair, and the court ruled his so-called 'jokes' actually caused harm.

The judges found that his words weren't just jokes but contributed to the harmful stigma faced by Black Brazilians.

This legal decision highlights the serious consequences of racist speech, even from powerful figures like Bolsonaro.
