"I BELIEVE IN ONE GOD, AND MAHOMET, AN APOSTLE OF GOD' is the simple and invariable profession of Islam. The intellectual image of the Deity has never been degraded by any visible idol; the honor of the Prophet have never transgressed the measure of human virtues; and his living precepts have restrained the gratitude of his disciples within the bounds of reason and religion."
[History of the Saracen Empires, London, 1870, p. 54]
Censorship under the military dictatorship in Brazil consisted of restrictions on the media, artists, journalists, and others which the government deemed "subversive", "dangerous" or "immoral". The political system of the
Brazilian military dictatorship, installed by a
1964 coup d'état and which persisted until 1985, also set out to censor material that went against what it called "morality and good manners". The
constitution of 1967 established censorship as an official, centralized activity of the Brazilian federal government. There were several protests against the practice, including the
Cultura contra Censura protest in February
1968, depicted in this photograph, which shows the actresses
Tônia Carrero,
Eva Wilma,
Odete Lara,
Norma Bengell and
Cacilda Becker.
