Suddenly, from the midst of the seated group, banners sprouted: "Hands off Czechoslovakia!" "Shame on the occupiers!" Among the seven demonstrators were Larisa Daniel, wife of Author Yuli Daniel, now serving a labor camp sentence for writing anti-Soviet material; Pavel Litvinov, grandson of Russia's wartime Foreign Minister, Maxim Litvinov; Viktor Feinberg, an art critic; and Poet Natalya Gorbanevskaya, who had brought along her three-month...
