Incontáveis - Season 1 Episode 5 População Negra e Moradores de Favelas na Ditadura
This episode addresses the issue of the regime's violence against the black population and favela residents. Tens of thousands of families were removed from their homes to make way for real estate speculation and the enrichment of the ruling classes, favored by the regime; young black men executed by death squads and extermination groups; favela residents arbitrarily arrested and tortured under the allegation of "vagrancy"; censorship and persecution of black cultural expressions: these were some of the main forms of violence that the regime used against these sectors of society, while reinforcing the myth of racial democracy and claiming that racism did not exist in Brazil. The episode is narrated by Asfilófio Filho, known as Dom Filó, an organizer of soul music parties that celebrated black beauty and questioned racism. Filó was arrested and taken to DOI-Codi after organizing a dance in Guadalupe, North Zone of Rio de Janeiro.
