Salazar was a portuguese catholic fascist dictator. His motto was “God, Fatherland and Family“. (ónio_de_Oliveira_Salazar)
In his authoritarian regime all books, musics, theaters, TV, news, etc. were censored by a police called PIDE. Critics and non-catholics were punished. Political prisioners were tortured. Young men had to join the army to battle in the african colonies - Ultramar was the portuguese Vietnam. Women couldn’t travel without their husbands permission or vote. That’s what Thereza Heinz was talking about when she said recently that she only started to vote in USA.
But on 25th April 1974 the MFA (portuguese army) revolted against the regime. The army took the radio stations and played musics as a signal. It was supposed to use the Zeca Afonso’s “Traz Outro Amigo Também“ (“Bring Another Friend Too“; his musics were censored by the regime) but his song “Grândola, vila morena“ was used instead. Only one people died when the PIDE started to shoot.
The soldiers used carnations flowers in their guns and tanks. That’s why it’s called the Carnantion Revolution, and that flower is a symbol for freedom in Portugal ( ).
Full version of the song:
Translation:
A response by Chico Buarque (“Tanto Mar“):
Video description:
the first images are censored documents by the PIDE and drawings representing a political criminals tortured and judged.
I took some videos from the portuguese movie “April Captains“. Radio stations broadcasted Afonso’s song. tanks invaded Lisbon and the army sent an ultimato to Marcelo Caetano (the new regime director after Salazar’s death).
That’s a prelude for my next video...
