The book is one of a series of publications concerning street protests that took place in Minsk in March 2006 following a presidential election condemned by international observers as neither free nor fair. The book features reflections of journalists and accounts by protest participants. Interviews were recorded in the tent camp at the Kastrychnitskaya Square, during mass demonstrations and outside prison walls. For instance, one of the protesters recalls his release from jail, "In excellent mood… we descended, convoyed by officers. It took us a few minutes to complete all formalities (we were given certain certificates) and receive our personal belongings. 'What do you think? Will you ever return here again?' an officer asked me instead of saying good-bye. 'Sure, If they arrest us for truth again,' he heard in reply." It is interesting to look through court records from trials of protesters. It is our modern history inside out. It is a history of impunity, deception and lies at the state level. On the other hand, it is a history of courageous resistance by thousands of ordinary people. Spring 2006 inspired hope that joint and coordinated efforts by pro-democracy groups eventually will bring political changes to this country.
