Escape From Behind the Iron Curtain

Fayette Senior Services (FSS) – Peachtree City location at The Gathering Place, 203 McIntosh Trail: What if escaping your country meant risking everything, your safety, your future, even your life? In 1986, Jana Polacek made a courageous escape from communist Czechoslovakia with her husband Milan and their young daughter, leaving everything behind in search of a better life. Now, nearly 40 years later, Jana and her son Michael will join us to share their powerful journey, from the gripping details of their escape to the challenges and triumphs of starting over as immigrants chasing the American dream. This powerful, personal story is one of courage, resilience, and hope as you hear firsthand what it takes to leave everything behind. Don’t miss the chance to hear history come alive through the eyes of those who lived it. This program is FREE but pre-registration is required.
