Portugal: The End of Iberian Exceptionalism
from The Breakfast Podcast · host Patricia López Muñoz
This episode isn't comfortable. It doesn't intend to be. Today I open pages that many would like to close: dictatorships that crushed voices, crimes hidden under flags, and silences that still scream. You will hear fragments of memory and analysis that are unsettling. Because to remember is to resist. Because forgetting is also violence.As fate would have it, Portugal, our neighbour, which suffered a dictatorship, has also decided to allow the far right to return.
