A huge musical theater performance on the history of the Swedish working class, which toured the country the summer of 1977 in a huge circus tent. The group included over 100 people, musicians, actors, and members of some of the biggest progg bands of Sweden at the time, most notable Nationalteatern. The Tent Project was a very radical, leftist political movement, but it included different political groups from anarchists to different types of communists and socialists.

Speeches of all the participants at the UN General Assembly ("General Debate of the 64th Session 23-26 & 28-30 September 2009") together with a summary are available here:
A film about a Nazi demonstration and local people support of it and a Roma protest against it, made by a student of Prague FAMU, called "The Circle - A Portrait of a Demonstration" was screened at Prague Roxy NOD club on Monday 7 Sept 2009. As Pavel Eichler, a journalist and blogger at idnes.cz, rightly points out in a very good summary of the discussion which followed the screening, Czech Nazis started using very effective techniques how to jump into a discussion and disrupt it and make it seem that they are right and their arguments are justified. No! They are not! Nazis are planning another march later this year (17 Nov 2009 - again, a march - in their words - to support "freedom of speech and non-violence"). Let there be more people to stop them.
