Solidarity According to Women
Piotr Śliwowski
They had the best years of their lives ahead of them. They were in their twenties and thirties, and they chose to rebel instead of settling down and living fairly peaceful lives. Those who they rebelled against tried to destroy their marriages; threatened them with placing their children in orphanages, or that something bad would happen to them if they did not agree to collaborate with the secret service. They were offered relocation to another country on the condition they refrained from activities injurious to the system. But they did not refrain from anything.
