Students demonstrated\, workers went on general strike\, factories and universities were occupied. At the height of its momentum\, the protests brought the entire national economy to a halt. The protests reached such a point that the French and international bourgeoisie feared civil war or revolution. \nFifty years later\, here are the eye-opening oral testimonies of those young rebels. By listening to the voices of students and workers\, as opposed to those of their leaders\, May ’68 appears not just as a mass event\, but rather as an event driven by millions of individuals\, creating a mosaic human portrait of France at the time. \nPublished on the 50th anniversary of those days in the spring of 68\, May Made Me presents the legacy of the uprising: how those explosive experiences changed the individuals who participated and their lives as lived since then. \nMitch Abidor is a translator from Brooklyn whose many translations include A Socialist History of the French Revolution by Jean Jaurès and Anarchists Never Surrender and other works by Victor Serge.
