Approaching 365 days of protest in Georgia
October 28th marked one year of #protest in #Georgia. What does this milestone mean to #citizens?
Georgians kept vigil over the past year with nightly blockades outside #parliament. With or without party leaders, people organized across towns and regions, rallying 300,000+ supporters online and building practical solidarity: rides, shelter, food, legal support.
Their endurance shows that the Georgian people know exactly what it is that they are fighting for, and that they will continue to defend their #EU future until the end.
