Guilherme Castro Boulos (born 19 June 1982)[1] is a Brazilian politician, activist[2][3][4] and writer. He is a member of the National Coordination of Homeless Workers' Movement (MTST).[5][6] Boulos joined the Socialism and Liberty Party (PSOL) in 2018,[7] and was PSOL's candidate for the presidency of Brazil in the 2018 general election.[8]
In 2020 Boulos was the PSOL nominee for mayor of São Paulo in the 2020 election, qualifying for a second round against PSDB candidate Bruno Covas. Covas defeated Boulos in the run-off. In the 2022 elections, Boulos was elected to the Chamber of Deputies from São Paulo, having received the most votes for federal deputy in the state.[9]
As a member of the Homeless Workers' Movement, Boulos became nationally known in 2003, when he participated in an occupation of Volkswagen's land in São Bernardo do Campo.[10] Closely associated with former President Lula da Silva,[11] he has been described as an "heir" to Lula, with his physical likeliness to Lula during his youth being widely noted.[12] He was selected by Time for their Time 100 Next list of emerging leaders worldwide for 2021.[13]
