    (vanity) This Czech singer, Marta Kubišová was in the streets, protesting for freedom while Soviet tanks rolled through the city. During this communist show of force, Kubišová's "A Prayer for Marta" became an underground anthem of freedom. Kubišová wasn't imprisoned--merely banned--reduced to a menial job for 20 years.
