How did it feel to find out that the holiday you&#039;ve been taught to hate your whole life as a symbol of oppression is celebrated somewhere elsse as a symbol of freedom and fight for human rights? How to deal with this duality? And what do Czechs celebrate on 1st May, if not workers? \r\n\r\nIn this pilot episode of the Francotch\u00e8que podcast, we&#039;ll take a look at how 1st May is celebrated in France and the Czech Republic, what were its historical origins. We&#039;ll also bring up some old grievances and, since France is a multicultural country, we&#039;ll see what foreign communities think about 1st May.","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/img.hearthis.at\/1\/0\/4\/_\/uploads\/11148475\/image_track\/14450613\/w1200_h628_q70_ptrue_v2_m1780389928----cropped_1780389919401.jpg?m=1780389928","thumbnail_width":1200,"thumbnail_height":628,"html":"<iframe scrolling=\"no\" id=\"hearthis_at_track_14450613_light\" style=\"border-radius: 10px;\" width=\"100%\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/hearthis.at\/embed\/14450613\/transparent\/?style=2&block_size=2&block_space=2&background=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency><\/iframe>","author_name":"IR Media","author_url":"https:\/\/hearthis.at\/irmedia\/"}
