Natasha Dudinska: Hope and Courage in Czechoslovakia
Produced by Alex Chadwick
Join us in Prague, Czechoslovakia as the government
collapses and Czechoslovakians see the chance to remake
their lives and society. Through the experience of a
student activist and interpreter, our program explains the
events that triggered the collapse and inspired the
opposition, and takes listeners inside Czechoslovakia's
burst of hope.
