RE: Progress Statue - Budapest

in #hungary6 years ago

That's a pretty dramatic stance the warrior has. Almost like it's using the torch to parry with or something. Very compelling history. I don't always think about the rest of the Soviet Union outside of Russia and how those countries must have felt when it all fell apart. Now, enough time has passed that it's harder to think in those terms, and so many young folks probably don't even know the history of it. I certainly hope the students of Budapest do.

I think most of the young people will know the history @glenalbrethsen. It is too close for them not to.

Their parents lived through very turbulent and very different times.
