Encore plus qu'en 68

At the bus stop across from St. Francois Xavier, I was about to sit while waiting for the #92 bus when I saw this graffiti on the bench."Encore plus qu'en 68 il va falloir se battre." [Even more than in '68, we'll need to fight.]

This spring is the 40th anniversary of "les évènements de mai 68."

These are part of the lyrics from a popular hip-hop song, C'est arrivé pres de chez toi.

  1. Not a happy thought, is it...?

  2. It's all politics. I found it to be a bit ironic on a bus-stop bench in the 7th arrondissement, an area not known for lots of political activism. On the other hand, there are a lot of Ministries here, so maybe those were the intended message recipients?
