What about the artists?
The Guardian - Wed 14 Oct 2020
The government is deaf to the plight of freelance musicians and othercreatives
On Monday, a number of British arts organisations finally heard whether they had received grants from the £1.57bn bailout fund announced in July by the chancellor, Rishi Sunak. Not a moment too soon, institutions such as Wigmore Hall in London, Bristol Old Vic and the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra have been given a cash bufferthatshould keep them alive until March.
The welcome announcement has been marred, though, by the failure of the government to address the question of freelancers and self-employed people in the arts. In an interview with ITV last week, Mr. Sunak was asked what he thought professional musicians ought to do, given that they can’t earn enough to live. He answered that up to 3 million people in the country qualified for help under the self-employed support scheme. Pressed on whether musicians oughttofind differentwork, he mentioned retraining schemes that are "providing new and fresh opportunity”. People must adapt, he said. He added that it was untrue that there was no work for musicians. Music lessons, in his own household at least, were still going on.

O poema de Castro Alves não só constrói uma crítica contundente ao tráfico de africanos escravizados, como também realiza uma crítica ao sentimento nacionalista romântico, uma vez que associa a imagem da bandeira do país à:
TEXTO
Saraivada de balas, de instantes em instantes, retumbam no interior da casa, ameaçando a diversão da mãe de Bica e de Idago. Dona Esterlina levanta irritada e muda de canal de televisão. Lá fora, balas e balas, independente do desejo da mulher, executam continuadamente a mesma e seca sonata. Uma programação mais amena vai entorpecendo os sentidos da mulher.
O que mais gosto na televisão é de novela. Acho a maior bobeira futebol, política, carnaval e show. Bobagem também reportagem, campanha contra a fome, contra o verde, contra a vida, contra-contra. Contra e não. Contra-mão. Ando sentindo dores nas pernas. Também! “Lata d'água na cabeça, lá vai Maria”. Sobe o morro, desce o morro e não se cansa dessa dança.
