Abstract
The article approaches the relationship between the aims of Paulo Freire’s education for liberation and the praxis of popular communication in Brazil. The goal is to understand the extent to which aspects of Freire’s thoughts can intersperse with concepts and practices of popular, community, and alternative communication in Brazil. The study is based on bibliographic research on Freire’s work while reflecting on some of the principles of the education for liberation, particularly those embedding the praxis of popular communication in social movements. This paper concludes by arguing that principles such as ‘communication as dialogue’, ‘critical consciousness’, the ability to become a ‘subject’, ‘education as a practice for freedom’, ‘connection to reality’, and ‘social transformation’ lie prominently in the concept and practices of popular and community communication.
