Tract – “Support our Action” (May/June 1968, Faculté de Médecine)

SUPPORT OUR ACTION

WE WANT REFORMS
– A democratic university open to all (3% of workers)
– Real, practical hospital training

    Nurse work placements in the first rotation
    A Foundation programme for everyone

– Medicine of quality and equality

    More doctor-student contact
    Tests of the knowledge and skills of future doctors
    No checklists for exams

AS:

– until now training hasn’t been appropriate to today’s circumstances
– selection wasn’t made on the basis of skills but on the number of places available in the Faculty

BECAUSE:
– our country is medically underdeveloped
– there are 8000 enrolments in C.P.E.M. and 2500 places available in the first year

  OUR TALKS ARE POSITIVE

But we need:

– office supplies
– paper for the Faculty newsletters
– funding

    for the creche for students’ children
    for the injured students
    for supplies
    for ambulances
    for the infirmary

HELP OUR MOVEMENT MORALLY AND FINANCIALLY

Tract – about Gilles Tautin (11 June 1968)

27 Saturday Aug 2016

Posted by biffbang in June 10-16 1968, Renault, Tract, Uncategorized

≈ Leave a comment

On 10 June, our comrade Gilles TAUTIN, a 17 year old high-school student, died – murdered by the Gaullist police. He had gone to Flins, outpost of the the proletarian resistance, to put himself at the service of the legitimate struggle of the workers of Renault for the satisfaction of all their claims and for the freedom of their factory.

GILLES died in the service of the people, for the union of the youth with the workers’ movement. From this point on his name is inseparable from the popular revolution, the springtime of our people.

We will escort Gilles for the last time in militant discipline.

The cortege will assemble on Saturday at 3pm, in front of his parents home, 120 Bd Berthier (17th)

His comrades.

—–

You have fallen for all who starve
All who are despised and oppressed
From your pity for your brothers
Wonderful martyrs and victims.

Chorus
But the hour has sounded and the people victorious
Stretch out, breathe and prosper.
Farewell comrades, Farewell noble hearts;
Farewell most noble brothers.

The prize of your efforts, the sentence of death
Or else a life in chains,
The noise of your shackles is pregnant with
The plains of Siberia.

– From Concorde to the Etoile, a million and a half French people proved that freedom was not dead.

– They demonstrated for democracy against fascism and totalitarian dictatorship.

–   The people of Paris spontaneously found a revolutionary spirit, they rose en masse against “the bloody banner of tyranny.”

–   But the fight is not over.

–   We must make every effort to ensure that elections can be held.

Tract – “The Cessation of Work is the Downfall of the Country” (May/June 1968)

25 Thursday Aug 2016

The Cessation of Work,
 is the downfull of the Country.

The downfall of the country, is our own downfall

We can not guarantee the life of our
FAMILY in the OVERALL DOWNFALL.

 Political oneupmanship puts every benefit already acquired into peril

 We are being carried along by a minority who plays at revolution at our expense and which will leave us united … in calamity!

This minority intentionally spreads hatred.

We regret that we have allowed them to act.

Tract – “Elections – Between the Ballot-box and the Barricade (June 1968 – La Restauration Nationale)

Elections

BETWEEN THE BALLOT-BOX AND THE BARRICADE
The winner is known in advance

PEOPLE OF FRANCE: The Republic only has the Ballot Box to fight against the Barricade. Can’t you see how ridiculous this is? We need to throw republican institutions into the dustbin of History. They are powerless and out-moded.

 * To avoid the spectre of civil war, the Republic once again throws the French people into partisan conflict and electoral competition.
 * France, and the sole interest of the French people, aren’t represented in the Republican choices offered to us:
  — GAULLISM: partisan, purifying, adventurist, dictatorial, technocratic and plutocratic, thus the best trump-card to communism.
  — COMMUNISM: partisan, totalitarian, foreign, tyrannical and revolutionary.

  Every kind of Republic has been tried: they have always ended in defeat, invasion, civil war or revolution. We must break this vicious and deadly cycle. France needs for its defense, a new, modern and suitable solution:

it exists : THE MONARCHY

THE NATIONAL RESTORATION

We would be pleased if many of you would attend  this meeting to take part in our critique.
