Brazilian Surfer João Chianca Ordered to Remove Christ the Redeemer Image or Face Ban at Paris Olympics
Jul 27, 2024, 06:25 PM
At the 2024 Paris Olympics, 23-year-old Brazilian surfer João Chianca was instructed to remove an image of Christ the Redeemer from his surfboards. Chianca, who currently ranks 5th in the world surfing rankings, faced this directive two weeks before the games under Article 50 of the Olympic Charter, which prohibits any form of political, religious, or racial demonstration or propaganda at Olympic venues. Chianca was told he would be barred from competing if he did not comply. The decision has sparked controversy, with some pointing out perceived inconsistencies in the enforcement of the rules.
