Today, Roman Dmowski is specified a memory of times in which there were no specified problems, and we want this figure to be able to proceed to interact with the young generation, not just with postulates, but with a way of reasoning that is timeless. We want Roman Dmowski's oasis and his thoughts for young people to get acquainted with this character, said Kacper Kociszewski.
