What if democracy fails citizens by not serving them all equally? What if inequality becomes the norm and the most vulnerable citizens are left behind with no money, no home, no rights, and no country of their own?

After the tragic death of two of its founding members, the group feels that Hungary is growing more hostile and their struggle is more important than ever.
