Arsakeio Junior School of Thessaloniki’ participation in KANTO NAKOYSTEI radio spot contest.
RADIO SPOT TEXT
-Down with war! No more destruction! No more refugees!
-What is the matter Thanos? What are talking about?
-Do you not even care about what we have been talking and hearing about all these months, the Asia Minor Disaster?
-Where did we hear that?
-All the time, on TV programmes, dedications, documentaries,concerts and eye witness accounts that we have read about in class.
-OK You are right! Those stories were so sad, so full of the pain of the people who went through that experience. The terrible truth about war comes out in their accounts.
-But even though they were living through hell, they were strong enough to get through it and save their families.
-They had terrible lives!I am so grateful that I have never had to live through something like that, and I hope I never will, nor anyone else! I think it is awful and that nobody should have to go through it.
-100 years after the disaster,the memories of the people who were lost have become immortal, and those who were saved managed by their bravery and their strong souls to tell us about their love for their homeland and its rich culture.
