What is Struggle for Freedom and Democracy Day?
Struggle for Freedom and Democracy Day, marked in the Czech Republic and Slovakia on 17 November, remembers the student demonstrations of 1989. Half a million people filled the streets of Prague and Bratislava, and within weeks the communist rule that had lasted four decades was over. The day remembers the courage of ordinary people and asks what a democracy owes them today.
