Abstract

The popularization text printed in the popular part of the scientific journal is composed of memories and lyrics of songs sang by the group Čercheň from Rokycany, the small town in West Bohemia. Tjhis group was active at the turn of the 1980s and 1990s and their songs were activist, let's say protest-songs.

The key to this article is a song dedicated to the criticism of the forced sterilization of Romani women, who were motivated by a financial incentive.
