The brave generation that challenged the Brazilian military dictatorship from 1964 to 1985 faced defeat in 1968. A decade later, however, a new wave of activists emerged and demanded an end to military rule. James N. Green highlights how the activists of “Generation ’77” not only opposed the regime but also grappled with broader questions about democracy and the rising Black, women’s, and LGBTQ+ movements. Unlike contemporary Marxists, they had different ideas on how to create a more inclusive society after authoritarianism. In this talk, Green delves into this often-overlooked generation to show how it shaped a new, long-term political vision as Brazil slowly moved toward democracy.
