Manage episode 413273868 series 3285395

Protest music flourished, with artists like Adriano Correia de Oliveira and Fausto Bordalo Dias confronting censorship sometimes through metaphor, sometimes overt critique. Even Eurovision became a stage for protest.
These songs persisted, shaping our collective memory. Listen to our episode and then listen to the songs here:
