aug 31, 1980 - Solidarity Trade Union's Pro-democracy Movement in Poland

Description:

This was the first trade union in a Warsaw Pact country that was not lead by a communist government. It was an anti-bureaucratic social movement to advance the causes of workers' rights and social change. This was a step closer to encouraging humanitarianism and promoting individualism, where the individual is valued.
