November 17, 2024: The Message of the Velvet Revolution

Join us in commemorating the 35th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution—a peaceful movement that brought an end to communist rule in Czechoslovakia. Together, we’ll reflect on the period before and after the Revolution, explore the journey to freedom and democracy, and discuss the current threats of autocracy and totalitarianism facing our nations.
