Dictatorship Discussions

  • International House of Rhode Island 8 Stimson Avenue Providence, RI United States (map)

Join us for a compelling talk as we remember the 60th anniversary of the Coup d'Etat in Brazil and the ensuing 21-year Civil-Military Dictatorship. This period was marked by severe repression, censorship, and widespread use of torture. We will delve into these topics and reflect on their impact on Brazilian society. 

Following the speech, a debate will be opened about dictatorships, allowing anyone to share their personal experiences related to the topic!

Speaker: Mateus Gamba Torres, PhD, Professor at the Department of History at the University of Brasília
