Remebrance...November 17, 1973




November 17, 1973:
Athens Polytechnic uprising against the Military Junta.
After 3 days of protest, the tanks crashed the gates of Polytechnic School at 3 am. Bloodshed.
It seems that dictatorships apply same policies worldwide.
5 years ago in Mexico, same scene( thank you conejo for the photos)!
Lack of creativity of inhumanity as someone said...
Memories of my childhood: me holding a red carnation and the hand of my grandmam at the monument in Athens, beginning of 80's and the tears of my uncle who happened to be there that night, 17 year old boy...
