- Overview
- One of the most notable anti-communist initiatives in the late 80s was the movement called Czech Children. They published their manifesto in May 1988, and the signatories were mostly young people. The movement expressed independent thinking and significantly contributed to the demonstrations in 1988 and 1989, especially during the so-called Palach Week in January 1989. In the document "Czech Children," the authors focus primarily on a young audience, aiming to remind them that the need to stand against injustice is not bound by age.
