The "scientific twist". The offer of Turks and Gypsies to Humanity. (http://www.ellinoistorin.gr/?p=17433) The late Anna Tziropoulou Eustathiou, referring to the hero-martyr Athanasios Diakos and his sacrifice, reads from Ivo Andric's book "There is a river in Drino", the in a way that the gyftos were spitting about account of their Turkish masters, people who dared to raise their heads in Turkey. Inhumane, horrible moments, which, however, must be made known, because in the name of the infamous "Greek-Turkish friendship" important events are hushed up in an attempt to erase the historical truth from the collective memory. ------------------------------------------ Image: Athanasios Diakos in his creation Dionysiou Tsokou (1861).
