<i>Roll Call</i> Features "Prague Through the Lens of the Secret Police"

The Capitol Hill newspaper Roll Call published a 14 September 2009 article entitled When Prague Spied on its Own on the photo exhibition Prague Through the Lens of the Secret Police assembled by the Institute for the Study of Totalitarian Regimes and the Security Services Archive--both in Prague--and hosted by the Woodrow Wilson Center.

Roll Call staff writer Kristin Coyner described the exhibit as "part history lesson and part spy drama," stating that it offered visitors "the rare opportunity to see what life was like for Czechs under the Iron Curtain."

Prague Through the Lens of the Secret Police will be at the Wilson Center through 4pm on Friday, 18 September 2009.
