Episode 10 | What was the Tascón List?

In 2004, Hugo Chávez faced a recall referendum that threatened to remove him from power.

But as millions of Venezuelans signed to demand a vote, their names were turned into a political weapon. The infamous Tascón List exposed citizens—and helped transform democracy into a system of loyalty and fear.

This is the story of the 2004 recall referendum, the Bolivarian Missions, and the blacklist that divided Venezuela.
