Wave of Radical Students' Protests in Poland

English

Today, people from the Students' Initiative held protests around Poland against the new Minister of Education, Roman Giertych. Giertych is the extreme-right leader of the League of Polish families, and the youth organization he reactivated (which had a history before the communist days of conducting pogroms) is best known for attacking gay parades and the like.

In Warsaw there was a very lively demo with many slogans against religion in schools, for libertarian education and against the government. The demonstration was joined by some people and many people sitting in cafes along the route were applauding. About 1000 people took part.

Other demos were held in Szczecin, Krakow, Katowice, Czestochowa, Wroclaw and Rzesów. We are just getting in reports but we are told they went without incident, gathered a couple of hundred people each and had wide public support from pedestrians and others on the street.

The actions will repeat next week and hopefully be even bigger.
