The John Lennon Wall

At the Lennon Wall in Prague - this is where young Czechs would write their grievances of the communist government in 1988 usually with phrases from Beatles songs. The Communist regime saw this as a source of irritation and in turn called the youth "alcoholics, mentally deranged, sociopathic, and agents of western capitalism." Today the wall represents a symbol of global ideals such as love and peace.
