Re: Four Ways to Fire a Frenchman (none / 1)

This is unrelated, but I just noticed that Libération has a special on known student figures active against the CPE, and this one person, here:

(source: http://liberation.com/page.php?Article=370253&Template=GALERIE&Objet=62344)

... was in the loud group of students (guy holding the microphone) I show in my anti-CPE demonstration picture diary:

ps: I'll be joining in today's demonstration (13:00), but still haven't decided whether I'll be taking pictures (it may rain, and since I prefer to go with my bike -this ensures more mobility- and that the last time this proved difficult to handle while taking pictures, I might just leave the camera at home).

You HAVE to take pictures! What will ET do without your pictures?!

We can become real 'press', but only if we have prictures by our correspondents.

guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation." --- David Graeber citing Marc Cooper

Exactly. One the FT is out, we can take over all the ad slots...

Re: Four Ways to Fire a Frenchman (4.00 / 3)

Yeees! I made up my mind in the shower, I will be taking pictures. In fact the demonstration starts near my flat, so I can even go a few floors up in the Town's Central Library (médiathèque) and take pictures of the crowd from above (just at the start I mean, after that I'll dive inside the crowd with my bike).
Ok I need to go to a friend's house first to try to convince her to come, so I'm signing off now. See y'all later.
