SUMMARY:Freedom Fighter Statue Unveiling & Multimedia Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Join the Hungarian American Coalition\, Honorary Consulate General of Atlanta and the local Hungarian American community for the unveiling of the 1956 Hungarian Freedom Fighter statue and the accompanying Multimedia Exhibit at Millennium Gate Museum! They have worked together to create a new statue to honor the heroes of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. It is the first of its kind in Georgia.\n  \nBackground: \n\nIn 1956\, students and workers banded together in an epic David vs Goliath struggle to bring the seemingly invincible Soviet Union to its knees when no one else dared. Following 13 days of hard-won freedom from October 23 – November 4\, the Revolution was crushed by Soviet forces and thousands were imprisoned or killed. More than 200\,000 ’56-ers made the difficult decision to flee the country with 35\,000 making their home in the U.S.\, including the great state of Georgia. This statue honors their legacy. \nBut these Hungarian heroes were not alone in their fight against Soviet tyranny and communism. So\, this statue will also serve as a symbol for freedom loving patriots everywhere and as a stark reminder of what it takes to overcome the evils of communism. \nTo those who stayed. To those who left. To those who were lost. We remember. \n\n  \nEvent details:  \n\nThe October 23rd event will take place from 1:00-4:00 PM\, with the unveiling scheduled from ~1:00-2:00 PM. \nPlease direct any questions to hac@hacusa.org. \nFree parking is available on side streets all around the Museum and Park. For wheelchairs or easy access\, please contact us for special instructions. \n\n\n\n  \n  \n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n	From the archive:
