The Cold War

Gulag Uprisings - Norilsk, Vorkuta, Kengir Rebellions in the USSR (2021x32)

:

Our historical documentary series on the history of the Cold War continues with a video on the Gulag uprisings of 1954-1955 in Norilsk, Vorkuta, and Kengir. The political prisoners, who were expecting their situation to be improved in the aftermath of Stalin's death, didn't get what they hoped for, so they went on a strike and made demands, which led to a bloodbath.
