The memorial action «Return of Names»

29 October at 17.00 in the House of Pristsniste  the memorial action «Return of Names» will begin in Montenegro.

On the eve of Political Repression victims Remembrance Day the “Return of Names” action takes place every year throughout Russia and abroad.

It will be the third time when volunteers and friends of the foundation read the names of people repressed in the Soviet Union and connected somehow with South-Eastern Europe, including Montenegrins. Each participant in the action, in addition to the name they get from the list, can also read the names of his relatives and friends who suffered in terror time.

The "Return of Names" action was founded by the human rights organization "Memorial".

Every year, on the eve of Political Repression victims Remembrance Day, people spend the whole day, October 29, taking their turns reading the names of the repressed people - their first name, middle name, last name, age, profession, place of birth, nationality, education, date of execution.

Neither current terror nor Stalin's should be forgotten. Human life is the main value. And no government has the right to encroach on it.

Join the action in the Pristsniste House yard. We have a list of names we collected for reading aloud.
