Free Besieged

Más información sobre el libro

The Athens Polytechnic uprising that started 14 November 1973 and lasted for three days, was indeed an immense protest of the students and the Athenians toward the tyrannical military junta of George Papadopoulos. Army tanks surrounded the buildings of the Polytechnic, as the students were barricaded within the confines of the university campus. And so, the massacre began. The grounds and the perimeter of the Polytechnic and the streets and sidewalks of the capital were painted red from the blood of the students and so many others. They were besieged. They were physically blockaded, but their spirits were not; not their hearts and souls. They were merely Free Besieged.
