Students of the world ignite!

STUDENTS OF THE WORLD IGNITE 1968-2008!

Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the 1968 'May events'.

40 years ago students were on the march against the US war on Vietnam but also against injustice and inequality everywhere. Then, in May, workers in France occupied their factories as students occupied their universities. Suddenly the world seemed on the brink of revolutionary change...Could it happen again?

LSE Students' Union invites you to a 40th anniversary conference:
Speakers include
Tariq Ali (writer, broadcaster & author of 'Street Fighting Years')
Chris Harman (LSE student '68 & author of '1968 The Fire Last Time)
Pierre Rousset (French Revolutionary)
And LSE student activists from 2008

PLUS A unique selection of 1968 short films
Saturday May 3rd from 2pm, LSE Old Theatre.
