| Mexican activists remember 1968 massacre - 2 Oct 08 |
 |
October 2 is an auspicious date in Mexico,
when the nation remembers the bloody massacre
of 1968.
Â
That is when Mexican security forces opened
fire on a public square crowded with
thousands of democracy activists.
Â
No one knows for sure how many people were
killed and to this day, no one has been
punished for the crime.
Â
Franc Contreras reports from Mexico City.

| Johnny Cash- Ring of Fire 1968 |
 |
THOSE SQUARE THINGS ARE ANNOTATIONS, HOVER
OVER THEM FOR INFO!!!!!
This is from the year 1968 at the Grand Ole
Opry, where Johnny Cash sung his 1963 hit,
"Ring Of fire". The song was written by June
Carter, and was originally sung by the Carter
Family, but didn't fare even close to as well
as Johnny Cash and his version of the song.
P.S.
4 million views. Thanks for viewing
everybody!

| 1968 Wonderbra Ad - Long Model Shoot |

This is another in the series of early
Wonderbra television advertisements. This
one features the models in a photo shoot to
emphasize the fashion of the product. The
use of mannequins to showcase the bras are
more pronounced. In 1969 the company was

models with the bra.

| Paris Uprising May 1968 |
 |
A look at the events and some of the causes
of the uprising in France in the Spring of
1968.
Unfortuately, there is no mention of one of
the driving forces of the uprising both
before and during the revolt - the
Situationist International.
For more information check out the writings
of the Situationists themselves.

Enrages and Situationists in the Occupation
Movement, France, May '68
May 1968 Graffiti
Boredom is counterrevolutionary.
In a society that has abolished every kind of
adventure the only adventure that remains is
to abolish the society.
Those who make revolutions halfway only dig
their own graves.
No replastering, the structure is rotten.
We will ask nothing. We will demand nothing.
We will take, occupy.
Down with the state.
It's painful to submit to our bosses; it's
even more stupid to choose them.
Abolish class society.
We want neither to rule nor to be ruled.
All power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts
absolutely
Politics is in the streets.
Barricades close the streets but open the
way.
People who work get bored when they don't
work.
People who don't work never get bored.
The boss needs you, you don't need the boss.
Humanity won't be happy till the last
capitalist is hung with the guts of the last
bureaucrat.
A single nonrevolutionary weekend is
infinitely more bloody than a month of total
revolution.
We refuse to be highrised, diplomaed,
licensed, inventoried, registered,
indoctrinated,
suburbanized, sermonized, beaten,
telemanipulated, gassed, booked.
Coming soon to this location: charming ruins.
Our aim is to agitate and disturb people.
We're not selling bread, We're selling yeast.
You will end up dying of comfort.
Poetry is in the streets.
The most beautiful sculpture is a paving
stone thrown at a cop's head.
Revolution, I love you.
I'm a Groucho Marxist.
Desiring reality is great! Realizing your
desires is even better!
Be realistic, demand the impossible.
Those who lack imagination cannot imagine
what is lacking.
Arise, ye wretched of the university.
Professors, you are as senile as your
culture, your modernism is nothing but the
modernization of the police.
Neither God nor master.
If God existed it would be necessary to
abolish him.
How can you think freely in the shadow of a
chapel?
The more we make love, the more we want to
make revolution. The more we make revolution,
the more we want to make love.
Revolutionary women are more beautiful.
Make love, not war.
Down with consumer society.
The more you consume, the less you live.
Commodities are the opium of the people.
You can't buy happiness. Steal it.
The economy is wounded - Lets hope it dies!
I don't have time to write!!!
Don't get caught up in the spectacle of
opposition. Oppose the spectacle.
No forbidding allowed.
The freedom of others extends mine
infinitely.
