Druga rzecz, która dla mnie w '67 roku była dosyć ciekawa, to były następstwa odczytu Leszka Kołakowskiego na uniwersytecie...który miał miejsce w '66 w dziesiątą rocznicę października, ale następstwa tego toczyły się później; to znaczy dyscyplinarki studenckie, wyrzucenie Leszka Kołakowskiego z partii i złożenie legitymacji partyjnej przez dosyć... dosyć sporo intelektualistów wtedy składało legitymacje partyjne, solidaryzując się z Leszkiem Kołakowskim.
The other thing that I found quite interesting in '67 was the outcome of the lecture given by Leszek Kołakowski at the university in '66 on the 10th anniversary of the October events. The consequences of this unravelled later – meaning disciplinary hearings for the students, ejecting Leszek Kołakowski from the party, and the handing back of party membership cards by quite a number of intellectuals who did this in solidarity with Leszek Kołakowski.
Jan Józef Lipski (1926-1991) was one of Poland's best known political activists. He was also a writer and a literary critic. As a soldier in the Home Army (Armia Krajowa), he fought in the Warsaw Uprising. In 1976, following worker protests, he co-founded the Workers' Defence Committee (KOR). His active opposition to Poland's communist authorities led to his arrest and imprisonment on several occasions. In 1987, he re-established and headed the Polish Socialist Party. Two years later, he was elected to the Polish Senate. He died in 1991 while still in office. For his significant work, Lipski was honoured with the Cross of the Valorous (Krzyż Walecznych), posthumously with the Grand Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta (1991) and with the highest Polish decoration, the Order of the White Eagle (2006).
