May 1968

In May 1968, French students and workers went on strike. The protest movement marked the passage of the baby-boomer generation into adulthood. Though short-lived, this revolution brought the reign of General de Gaulle to an end.

May 1968 is remembered for its slogans like “Under the pavement, the beach,” “It is forbidden to forbid,” and “Elections – traps for idiots.”
