1 | Brazil: Activists Protest in Memory of Military Dictatorship | Brezila : Mafàna Fo Nanao Hetsika Hanoherana Ny Fahatsiarovana Ny Jadona Miaramila |
2 | Earlier this month, a number of cities throughout the country held both real and virtual events to remember Brazil's military dictatorship (1964-1985). | Tanatin'ny andro vitsy monja, fihetsiketsehana maro mifandraika amin'ny jadona miaramila breziliana (1964-1985) no nitranga, na izany teny anivon'ny aterineto na teny ivelany, tamin'ny lafintany efatry ny firenena. |
3 | Brazil's president recently sanctioned the law to create a Truth Committee to oversee the opening of the dictatorship's secret files (reported by Global Voices in March 2011), to reveal the location of the bodies of dozens of political prisoners and guerilla fighters and to shed light on the country's somber past. | Lany tamin'ity taona ity ny fananganana Komitin'ny Fahamarinana, izay ny tanjona dia ny hanokafana ireo tahirin' antontan-taratasy momba ny jadona (efa nisy mikasika izany navoakan'ny Global Voices tamin'ny Martsa 2011). Tanjona kendreny ny hitadiavana ny taolambalon'ireo gadra politika am-polony sy ireo mpanao ady anaty akata tsy hita popoka, no sady hitondra fanazavana mikasika ireo andro maizina nodiavin'ny firenena. |

5 | The Inter-American Court of Human Rights of the Organization of American States (OAS) recently pressured Brazil to revise the country's Amnesty Law, a law instated by the then military regime to provide amnesty for its various crimes, such as torture, kidnapping, concealing bodies and murdering opponents. | Ny Fitsarana Amerikana momba ny Zon'Olombelona ao anatin'ny Fikambanan'ireo Firenena Amerikana (CIDH/OEA) dia nanery, tsy ela akory izay, an'i Brezila mba hiverina handinika ny lalàna momba ny famotsoran-keloka - lalàna napetraky ny fitondrana miaramila mba hamotsorana sy hamafàna ny heloka bevava nataony, toy ny fampijaliana, ny fitazonana olona, ny fanafenana faty sy ny famonoana mpanohitra. |
6 | Amidst the polemics involved in reviewing the Amnesty Law and the Truth Committee, activists decided to hold protests and to voice opinions on the need to punish the Dictatorship's criminals and to fully open the still classified files. | Teo ampahitàna ireo resabe momba ny fanavaozana ilay lalànan'ny famotsoran-keloka sy ny fananganana ilay Komitin'ny Fahamarinana, nanapa-kevitra ireo mafàna fo ny hanao fihetsiketsehana hanehoana mazava ny fihetseham-pon-dry zareo amin'ny ilàna famaizana ireo mpanao heloka bevavan'ny omaly sy hanokafana tanteraka ny tahirin'antontan-taratasy izay mbola tànana ho tsiambaratelo hatrany. |

11 | On March 29, a group of at least 300 protesters gathered in front of the Military Club in downtown Rio de Janeiro where a group of reserve soldiers and wistful politicians from the so-called Lead Years had also gathered to “commemorate” the military coup of 1964. | Ny 29 martsa, tarika iray nahitàna mpanao fihetsiketsehana 300 raha kely indrindra no nifamory teo anoloan'ny Club Militar, ao afovoan'i Rio de Janeiro, izao tamin'io andro io, nivory tao ireo miaramila fiandry sy ireo mpanao politika manina ny “taonan'ny mailamila varahina” mba “hankalaza” ny fanonganam-panjakana tamin'ny 1964. |
12 | The actual date of the coup was April 1 of that year, but soldiers and officers have attempted to rewrite history on account of the actual date's corresponding to April Fool's Day. | Ny tena fanonganam-panjakana marina dia nitranga ny 1 Aprily na dia nodisoin'ireo miaramila aza ny tantara tamin'ny fandraisana ho teboka fiaingana ny andro nialoha io, ny 1 aprily rahateo, ao Brezila “dia andro natao ho an'ny lainga na Poisson d'Avril”. |
13 | Cartoonish Carlos Latuff posted a video evidencing police violence against the protestors, siding with the soldiers and officers who defended the military's decades of torture and assassinations. He writes [pt]: | Ilay mpanao sarisary Carlos Latuff dia manazava sy mampakatra ho ety anaty aterineto ny lahatsary iray mampiseho ny herisetra nataon'ny polisy tamin'ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana, tonga manavotra ireo miaramila izay nampihatra fampijaliana ary ireo famonoana olona nandritra ny roapolo taona : |
14 | As is custom, the military police made extensive use of tear gas, pepper spray and brutality. | Toy ny mahazatra, ny Polisy Miaramila dia nampiasa betsaka ny entona mandatsa-dranomaso, ny fitsifotra misy dipoavatra, ary hatramin'ny famiasan-kery mahery vaika. |
15 | Former soldiers, such as Lieutenant Coronel Lício Maciel, who had participated in operations in Araguaia, and General Nilton Cerqueira, responsible for the execution of Carlos Lamarca, were driven away by the protestors. | Miaramila fahiny, toa an'i lieutenant-colonel Maciel, izay nandray anjara tamin'ny fidinana an-tsehatra tany Araguaia (Fanamarihan'ny mpandika: Tao amin'ity faritra iray ao Amazon ao Brezila ity no nisy ny toby famaharan'ireo kaominista mpanao ady anaty akata, sy nandravan'ny tafika azy teo anelanelan'ny 1975 sy 1976. |
16 | The youth who protested were beaten and wounded [pt] by the police, and many are receiving death threats [pt] from soldiers and officers, as exposed by Felipe Garcez in a post reproduced [pt] in the magazine Vírus Planetário, on Facebook. | Ringana tao ny ankamaroan'ireo mpiady anaty akata) ary ny Jeneraly Nilton Cerqueira, tomponandraikitra tamin'ny famonoana an'i Carlos Lamarca, dia nihorakorahan'ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana. Nodarohana sy noratrain'ny polisy ireo tanora mpanao fihetsiketsehana, ary ny sasany aza dia nahazo fandrahonana ho faty avy amin'ireo miaramila, tahaka izay nokianin'i Felipe Garcez tao anaty lahatsoratra naverin'ny gazetiboky Vírus Planetário noventiventesina tao amin'ny Facebook. |
17 | On April 1, nearly 400 citizens protested [pt] the commemoration of the coup: | Ny 1 Aprily dia olona manodidina ny 400 no nanao hetsi-panoherana manohitra ny fankalazana ilay fanonganam-panjakana : |
18 | The Cordão da Mentira hereby renounces the celebration of the military coup of 1964, held at the Círculo Militar do RJ, and the violent actions of the Military Police of Rio de Janeiro against protestors on March 29, 2012. The Cordão considers these occurrences lamentable, to say the least. | Amin'ny alalan'ity, ny tohivakan'ny lainga dia mihevitra ny hanao hetsi-panoherana manohitra ny fankalazana ny fanonganam-panjakana nataon'ny tafika tamin'ny 1964, izay natao tao amin'ny Cercle Militaire ao Rio de Janeiro, sy koa ireo herisetra nataon'ireo Polisy Miaramila ao Rio de Janeiro tamin'ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana nandritra ilay fankalazana, ny 29/03/12. Ilay Fiaraha-mientana dia manombana ny fihetsika toy izany ho lomorina, farafaharatsiny. |
19 | In his blog, Professor Chico Bicudo summarizes [pt] the motives of the protest: | Ny profesora Chico Bicudo, ao amin'ny bilaoginy, dia mamintina ireo anton'ilay fihetsiketsehana : |
20 | To commemorate the military dictatorship also means to celebrate censorship, prisons, assassinations, disappearances, torture and barbarity. | Ny fankalazana ny fanonganam-panjakana sy ny jadona miaramila dia midika ihany koa fankalazana ny sivana, ny fihazonana aolona, ny famonoana olona, ny fampijaliana ary ny fanjakan'i baroa. |

The protest lasted throughout Sunday afternoon and referenced a number of symbols and landmarks related to the military dictatorship, as professor Pádua Fernandes explains [pt] in his blog: | Nitatra hatramin'ny tolakandro manontolo ilay fihetsiketsehana io Alahady io ary ny zotra narahany dia nanoritra indray ireo mari-pamantarana samihafa sy ireo toerana nanamarika manokana ny jadona, araka izay anazavan'i profesora Pádua Fernandes azy ao amin'ny bilaoginy : |
25 | The protestors headed down Rua da Consolação and turned onto Maria Antônia, where homage was paid to student José Guimarães, who had been killed by the Communist Hunting Commando (CCC in Portuguese) in 1968; the protest then proceeded to Rua Martim Francisco, to the image of Our Lady maintained by the group Tradition, Family and Property (TFP in Portuguese) - an extremely right-wing Catholic group and the ideological basis for the coup. | Nirotsaka an-dalambe tao amin'ny làlan'i da Consolação ilay fihetsiketsehana, ary tafiditra tany amin'ny làlan'i Maria Antônia, toerana nisian'ny fanomezam-boninahitra ilay mpiantra, José Guimarães, novonoin'ny CCC (Commando de Chasse aux Communistes) tamin'ny 1968 ; avy eo nanohy nidina hatrany amin'ny solotenan'ny Nossa Senhora (Notre Dame) izay tazonin'ny FTP [Fianakaviana, Fomban-drazana sy Fizakà-manana, vondrona avy amin'ny farany havanana katôlika ary fototra ara-kevitry ny fanonganam-panjakana - Fanamarihan'ny GV] ao amin'ny làlana Martim Francisco. |
26 | Following that, the protesters headed to Rua Fortunato to pay homage to ALM militant Marco Antonio Braz. Farther along, the group stopped in front of the offices of a major São Paulo newspaper (Folha de São Paulo) and later on, at nearly 6:00 p.m., in front of the offices of the former Department of Social and Political Order (DOPS in Portuguese), now the Pinacoteca Museum (which houses the Memorial to the Resistance). | Avy eo, làlana Fortunato, fanomezam-boninahitra hafa, ho an'ilay mpitolon'ny ALN (Action de Libération Nationale) Marco Antonio Braz (…). Rehefa avy niato teo anoloan'ny foiben-toeran'ny fanaovan-gazety ‘pauliste' (de São Paulo) [Folha de São Paulo - Fanamarihan'ny GV], (…), nandray ny zotra mankany amin'ny DOPS fahiny (Fanamarihan'ny mpandika: Département de l'Ordre Public et Social, fahatsiarovana mahonena) ny laharana, izay lasa ho Estação Pinacoteca amin'izao fotoana (izay mitahiry ny tsangambaton'ny fanoherana), nanodidina ny tamin'ny 6 ora hariva teo. |
