@helenS I really remember that.

@helenS You are right on the specifics.
May´68 was a "cultural", intellectual rebellion.
But, even so, would even never happened then and there if not for the social world events, where people risked their lifes for freedom and justice.
The 2nd of my pictures is not from the French May.
Was taken during the Cordobazo, in Argentina, May 1969.
That dictatorship over my country (we had an even worst one years later) was shaken through it roots.

@helenS That other pic, the one you last commented haves a strong symbolic meaning. So for my country as personally for myself.
Do you know whom are those young ones in that specific pic?
Science students of the Exact and Natural Sciences faculty of the University of Buenos Aires.
Their professors and even the faculty Dean went to jail that night.
Even if all universities were taken by the dictatorship that day ("La noche de los bastones largos") the one faculty treated with extreme violence was the Sciences one. The ideologic mentors of the dictatorship explicitely HATED them.
Nothing so strange...
BTW I didn´t look like, but I was 16.

@Platoscave A facist dictatorship.
A later one (1976-1983) kidnaped and killed (made "dissapear") 30000 Argentinians.
Yes, 30 thousand people.
Yes, over total population by 1976, ONE IN EACH THOUSAND.
And they not only could sleep.
They celebrated!!
But were defeated in the end.
