With long hair against the regime

Dlouhými vlasy proti systému.

When he was going to take a secondary school-leaving exam, he came over to a theatrical make-up artist. He needed a wig. He was told he wouldn’t pass the exam unless he would have his hair cut. During the school-leaving exam, a bulge appeared on the back side of the wig. A comrade teacher approached and told him: “You can take it off now.“ He graduated from a faculty of Mechanical engineering of CVUT in Prague even though he sat for an entrance exam at a faculty of Pedagogy at Palacky University. In the course of the entrance exam an overseeing comrade professor told him: “Lad, you will have to have your hair cut.“ He hadn’t had his hair cut. He went to study at CVUT. “If I hadn’t had my hair cut at the faculty of Pedagogy, they would have expelled me in 14 days.“

My name is Bretislav Sobek. I am curious and don’t understand new things. That is the reason why I ask, I write it down and post it.

I have written hundreds of emails to newspaper’s editorial offices. They have answered me once. They wrote me that if I wanted to write I should study journalism including a link to the right faculty. They said it was supposed to be the right place for me.

Others answered with a suspicion that I was a PR manager of a political party. I just wanted to inform my fellow citizens about what I think was important to them.

I applied for Journalists unions. They didn’t accept me and weren’t able to explain me why. The same went for another ten candidates.

And that’s the reason why I decided to set up my own newspaper and named myself a chief editor.
