The International Day of Heroes against Totalitarianism was first celebrated on May 25, 2020. It was a resolution of the European Parliament, which proposed it in memory of Captain Pilecki, brutally executed by the communist regime on May 25, 1948.
Another great Polish figure in the struggle against totalitarian Marxism was Karol Jozef Wojtyla, St. John Paul II, who devoted many years of his life, before and during his papacy, to preventing the spread of communism by fighting the movement known as Liberation Theology. His work was instrumental in the fight against communism in his native Poland and eventually throughout Europe. His father, a Polish non-commissioned officer, was also killed during the occupation of Poland, and he himself was taken into custody by the Gestapo. He miraculously escaped deportation to Siberia.
