Posted Atelier Populaire, de Gaulle, June 10-16 1968, Poster
in“He’s still the Chienlit!”
(June 16 – Atelier Populaire)
Green screen-print on newsprint
53 x 84.5cm
This poster refers to de Gaulle’s infamous speech of 19 May where he used the phrase “La réforme oui, la chienlit non!”. Taken on face value the phrase means “Reform yes, chaos no!”. But de Gaulle also intended a scatological pun here, where “chienlit” is “chie-en-lit” – shit-in-the-bed.
The phrase in important enough to have its own article on wikipedia which explains the allusions.

Posted June 10-16 1968, Renault, Tract, Uncategorized
inOn 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.
