War and Occupation: A black crow spreads its wings over Prague

The Czech Radio archives include many recordings from the time of World War
II. They come from both sides: propaganda from within occupied Bohemia and
Moravia aimed at intimidating the population and bullying them into
supporting the Reich, but also recordings from abroad. Both the BBC and the
government in exile in London were broadcasting to occupied Europe in
Czech, at the same time informing the wider world about the fate of
Czechoslovakia in English. Some of the extracts we’ll be hearing have
become well known, but our archives also hold many surprises, rare
recordings that give us unexpected insights into life during wartime.
