Brazilian volleyball star shows his support for queer fans by wearing the Pride flag on his jersey

Brazil boasts one of the largest contingents of out Olympians in the world. There were at least 18 out Brazilian athletes at the Tokyo Games.

For the upcoming Paris Games, Brazil appears poised to send over a dozen out athletes again. And at least one passionate ally will be joining them.

Brazil men’s national volleyball team star Henrique Honorato is expected to make his Olympics debut, fresh off showing his support for the LGBTQ+ community all Pride season.

Honorato wore a special Pride jersey during June, with the rainbow and progress flags around the shirt’s trimming.

In a powerful photograph, Honorato is the only player on the national team wearing Pride regalia on a trip to Japan.
