 Description

Segment from Československý zvukový týdeník Aktualita (Czechoslovak Aktualita Sound Newsreel) 1942, issue no. 25, depicts a public demonstration on Cabbage Market Square (Zelný trh) in Brno on 12 June 1942, which was to vociferously condemn the assassination of Acting Reich Protector Reinhard Heydrich. The gathering was attended by 12,000 people. A grandstand in the middle of the crowded square is decorated with the Imperial Eagle and the national emblems of Bohemia and Moravia. The main speaker, Minister of Education and People´s Enlightenment Emanuel Moravec, encourages Czech people to take into account the past. The segment concludes with the Czech anthem (authentic sound and singing) with images of people with arms raised in the Nazi salute.
