Bloody Sunday
22 Jan 1905 — Troops fire on a peaceful procession of workers bringing a petition to the Winter Palace; hundreds are killed. The myth of the Tsar as the people’s father dies in an afternoon. A memorial, not a battle.
This is one scene of Chapter 1 — The Brittle Giant in The Russian Revolution, 1905–1924.
