The story of the Polytechnic Uprising began in ’73, etched in blood, carried in songs, shouted in slogans. Fifty years on, it is still being written in the rhymes and colours of street art. The walls of the downtown Athens neighbourhood of Exarchia keep their own diary, a living archive of memory, protest, and creation.
Today’s anniversary is a reminder that collective hope and solidarity can shift realities. Its spirit endures in every gesture of memory, resistance, and creation.
