August 21, 1968 The Czechoslovakian people spontaneously and nonviolently resisted invasion of their country of 14 million by hundreds of thousands of troops and 5000+ tanks from the Soviet Union and four other Warsaw Pact countries. The troops were enforcing the overthrow and arrest of Alexander Dubcek and his government. They had been implementing significant democratic reforms known collectively as “socialism with a human face,” or the Prague Spring. photo: Hundreds attempted to obstruct invading tanks. bit.ly/PragueSpring More Peace & Justice history here bit.ly/WeekInPeace buttons at bit.ly/ResistButton Union printed - made in Detroit
