In recent years, Brazilian football has seen various collective mobilization processes emerge. Although there is substantial academic research in Brazil on inequality and power dynamics within the sport, studies specifically focused on collective mobilization within the sport remain limited. Also, existing research on these mobilizations often lacks connection to the research fields on activism, protests, and social movements. This investigation aims to bridge this gap by analyzing the diverse forms of activism in Brazilian football, while also engaging with the broader Brazilian literature on activism, mobilization, and political contention.
