Bac u kry is a Slogan which was used during the Kosovo's[a] independence from Serbia in February 2008. It means Uncle, It is done![1]
The slogan was also used on T-shirts, pens and posters. The creators of this phrase say that this symbolizes the independence which many Ethnic Albanians dreamt for since the end of the Kosovo War in 1999.[1]
The slogan often accompanies the face of Adem Jashari, an Ethnic Albanian Commander during the Kosovo War who was killed in action.[1]
[edit] Uses
The slogan Bac u kry was used by many. There are billboards which use this phrase. In addition, in downtown Borroramizi (Pallati i Rinisë) there is a flag with exactly the same expression.
