The legacies of Brazil's military dictatorship with Vera Paiva

Vera Paiva is a Full Professor in the Department of Social Psychology at the Institute of Psychology at the University of São Paulo, where she has taught since 1987. She is dedicated to psychosocial approaches to inequality and sexuality and to the innovation of health practices (prevention and care) based on human rights, with an emphasis on STIs/AIDS and covid-19. She has extensive collaboration with AIDS Programs (national, state and municipal) and Covid-19 response networks. She is a researcher at the Institute of Advanced Studies, University of São Paulo. She is the eldest daughter of Rubens Paiva, a Brazilian engineer and politician tortured and murdered by Brazil's military dictatorship in 1971. Her family's life is the subject of feature film I'm Still Here, a current box office hit in Brazil, nominated twice to the 2025 Golden Globe Awards and shortlisted in the 2025 Academy Awards International Film category.

Brazil is going through challenging times. There’s never been a more important moment to understand Brazil’s politics, society, and culture. To go beyond the headlines, and to ask questions that aren’t easy to answer. 'Brazil Unfiltered,' does just that. This podcast is hosted by James N. Green, Professor of Brazilian History and Culture at Brown University and the National Co-Coordinator of the U.S. Network for Democracy in Brazil.

Brazil Unfiltered is part of the Democracy Observatory, supported by the Washington Brazil Office. This podcast is edited and produced by Camilo Rocha in São Paulo.
