| | Today are 16 years since the romanian Revolution. So many things
happend then, so many afterwards, but for me is an important turnover
of my life: with it I wouldn't have met wonderfull people in my life.
without the sacrifice of the young people of that time, the students
the intelectuals, the workers, I could not enjoy the freedom I have
now. The events from then are still alive in my mind, even if I were
just 9 years old then, in Medias, but scare, not seeing my father for
almot 7 days, he stayed at his work, ensuring the secrity of his
working building.Fortunatly, in my city the army was
confined in the baracks after just one day out,
weren't any shootings, except some from the Securitate HQ and the
military airport.
In the last days I came over some picture from then, mainly bucharest,
Timisoara, and browse them. I decided to make a small picture album
about those days.
People burning Ceausescu's books and portrait.
Piata Victoriei ( Victory's Plaza ). People chanting anti-ceausescu and anti-comunist songs.
22nd December 1989, Republic's Plaza. Ceausescu flees with helicopter from the besiged Party Central Comitee HQ.
Bucharest, Magheru Boulevard, 22nd Dec 1989. Special Police tries to
stop the people, but they cannot, so they dissengage. The army
fraternise with the protesters. Since then the chant:"The Army is with
us!" heared in all cities.
