Tα όνειρα των εραστών δε σβήνουν......

35 years today after the Polytechnic uprising in Athens...and 7.000 policemen are going to guard the march which will end up like every year in front of the American embassy, protesting about their role in our junta....
I'm in the Hague together with a Mexican friend, who used to wear a t-shirt depicted the tank which entered the university in Mexico city in 1968...
Last week the prosecution of the polytechnic massacre by the junta was mentioned as the most successful example of transitional justice...
35 years later we don't know how many people were killed that night...
their demands though for bread, education and freedom are more relevant than ever....cause as the Greek song says the dreams of lovers do not die....
