50 years of #CZ #history - last few minutes of this #documentary (year 1968) changed within few months, with borders being closed with barbed wire and heavily watched so no citizens could leave
I cannot believe I am reliving tanks and shooting civilians again - only this time we will have videos in #color

when I was 10 years old I saw my first #coochie in a game of #truthordare. later that week a neighborhood kid from #Czechoslovakia ratted me out to my mom.

Another cool find, courtesy of our old house. A coin from 1947, one year before the communist regime took over in Czechoslovakia. Looking at the close-up picture of the heads side, I'm beginning to think it shows Jánošík, the Slovak version of Robin Hood. I love finding these little pieces of history, however mundane.
'The shop on main street', de Ján Kadár, Elmar Klos. An inept Slovak peasant is torn between greed and guilt when the Nazi-backed bosses of his town appoint him “Aryan controller” of an old Jewish widow’s button shop. Humor and tragedy fuse in this scathing exploration of one cowardly man’s complicity in the horrors of a totalitarian regime. Made near the height of Soviet oppression in Czechoslovakia.

In old Prague, the KGB spread their wings,
With fake Westerners, they played their strings.
Undercover as spies,
They told countless lies,
To infiltrate during the Prague Spring's flings.

4) In Husák's #Czechoslovakia, the poems of #EgonBondy were banned. The #PlasticPeopleOfTheUniverse were not allowed to record/distribute their #music. This didn't stop PPU from recording an album in 1974–75 with lyrics mainly taken from Bondy poems. After PPU's 1976 imprisonment, a Czech in London tried to get the album released abroad. It was released in 1978 in France and England, including the track "Toxica." #ThreeMinuteThursday #3MT #Czechia #PragueUnderground https://youtu.be/4X46rmf8534?si=h_ksZ8_9TD1mm2wI
