Eja e Diversidade

Abstract

The Brazilian Constitution guarantees freedom of expression in its article 5 and prohibits any type of censorship, reinforcing the idea that artistic expression must be free and respected as a fundamental right. However, despite this legal protection, censorship still manifests itself in various ways, whether through political, economic or social pressure. To minimize the tensions between art, culture and censorship and guarantee the freedom provided for by law, two educational actions can be particularly effective.
