Singing Revolution

The Singing Revolution was a peaceful movement in Estonia during the late 1980s that used singing as a form of protest against Soviet control. Estonians gathered to sing national songs and hymns, celebrating their cultural identity and independence. These demonstrations fostered unity, boosting national pride and signaling resistance non-violently. As a result, this movement played a key role in Estonia regaining independence in 1991, showcasing how cultural expression can be a powerful force in political change without conflict.
