1968 :: PARIS RIOTS听 (pictured) contacted the听 website because she found herself caught up in events in Paris in 1968.
Jean was just 24 years old & was working as a librarian in London when she decided to take a holiday in Paris. As she arrived the student riots & the worker鈥檚 strike really got underway. It was a clash of ideologies. The left wing of the students & workers marching against the right wing of de Gaulle鈥檚 government.
Jean wrote about the events she saw in letters to her parents who were living in Oregon, and the more astute listener will immediately be able to tell that she has a firm connection with America.
