Millions of Names - Millions of Deaths in the Gulag
I've been at a site of horrors. I've seen things that I could never forget. Or forgive.
'The major experience of the Romanian gulag took place between 1948 and 1960, when the Communist Party subjugated the country's bourgeois society to the Soviet system in several waves of repression. It is estimated that, during those years, more than a million persons were arrested, interrogated, tortured, "re-educated" and interned in camps. In view of the totally deficient information available, it is impossible to estimate how many of those people died. Some historians assume that hundreds of thousands were murdered.'
Out of the many prisons and concentration camps, the Sighet prison was reconstructed and transformed into a museum and memorial.
Orasul in sine nu m-a impresionat, dar cand am intrat in fosta inchisoare comunista m-am simtit ca si cum as fi calatorit inapoi in timp (desi un timp pe care nu l-am prea cunoscut). In ora petrecuta acolo am invatat mai multe lucruri despre ororile comunismului decat in toate orele de istorie din timpul scolii.
In scoli ar trebui sa se organizeze excursii prin Maramures si nu prea au cum sa ocoleasca Sighetul. Eu am ajuns acolo in practica in timpul facultatii si imi pare rau ca inainte de asta nu am avut ocazia sa vad Maramuresul.

A collection of the most beautiful and amazing square photographs I found among my favourites. Please have a look and give these artists the attention they deserve!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
