The 1960's Dissidents - the Sixtiers
Manage episode 344245854 series 3284458
The 1960's counter-culture in Soviet Ukraine was a bit more dramatic than that of the West: poets could were feared, the individual was on the rise and national awareness was creeping up into the national consciousness of Ukraine's students and intellectuals. Some of these dissidents were arrested, some killed but all of them influenced a generation of people and an entire nation. From a revolt over the destruction of a stained-glass window in Kyiv to theatrical protests against sham show trials - these artists weren't afraid of the all-powerful communist party; but the party was afraid of them. Take a look at these dissidents: their lives, their art and their influence in this latest episode.
