The Revolution on Granite (Ukrainian: Революція на граніті, romanized: Revoliutsiia na hraniti) was a student-led protest campaign that took place primarily in Kyiv and Western Ukraine in October 1990.

[1] Student leader Oles Doniy [uk] declared that the Democratic Bloc ought to have won a majority.

[4][5] They had decided against using the originally intended protest site Mariinskyi Park since that place was filled with Militsiya (the Soviet police force).

[10] During the protest, prominent cultural figures, opposition politicians and Soviet dissidents visited the students to show their support.

[10] On one of the first days of protests, chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the Ukrainian SSR Leonid Kravchuk visited the protestors.

[10] On the first day of the protest, only a few dozen students from Kyiv, Lviv, Dneprodzerzhinsk (now Kamianske), Ivano-Frankivsk, and several other cities gathered at the square.

[13] Mykhaylo Svystovych and Vyacheslav Kyrylenko started their political career with taking part in the Revolution on Granite.
