At the beginning of the Revolution, a Turkish official expresses his concern for the fate of the Ottoman Empire, due to the fact that it is unjust to its subjects. On the occasion of the celebration of the national milestone of 200 years since the Revolution of 1821, ERT broadcasts every day a different one-minute segment based on passages from the texts of '21 fighters and scholars of the time, with the general title "'21 through texts of '21 ».

These are, in total, 365 single minutes, dedicated to the Greek Revolution, which will be broadcast daily by ERT1, ERT2, ERT3 and ERTWorld. The idea, the selection, the composition of the texts and the reading are the work of the professor of the History of New Hellenism, at the EKPA, Maria Efthymiou, who generously collected and presents texts from the 1821 era, which explain, remind and narrate the revolutionary years through the words of the fighters of the 21st century and scholars of the time.
