Czech children still caged


This video is called Slavoj Zizek in Prague 1 of 2.

Part 2 is here.

The video says about itself:

Slavoj Zizek supporting the Prague protests against the US military base.

From the BBC:

Filming reveals Czech children still caged

The Czech Republic banned the use of cage-like beds in children’s care homes a year ago, under international pressure. But as Clive Myrie reports for the Ten O’Clock News, secret filming shows the use of the beds goes on.

We clustered around the tiny television monitor in our hotel room in the centre of Prague.

Along with BBC producer Annie Allison, and cameraman John Landy, I watched with fascination and horror as the video played.
