On this day in 1871, French troops sided with the people that they were sent to repress against the generals and the oligarchs who sought to dominate them. This set off a revolutionary chain reaction that changed the course of history. Such things do happen. crimethinc.com/arch18

For a decade or two, the music press acted as a popular alternate curriculum, introducing a generation or two to radical politics, wider reading and alternate/submerged histories. If you weren’t of the class who saw higher education as either guaranteed or a natural birth right-it was invaluable.
