Last Born In The Wilderness

Alley Valkyrie returns to discuss the largest student-led demonstrations in France since 1968. These massive, weeks-long protests are led by teenagers attending the nation’s public high schools, which are in abysmal shape due to severe austerity measures implemented by the Emmanuel Macron presidency. Alley lays out the impact neoliberalism has had on the education system and how, while shocking in certain aspects, this mass uprising was not the least bit surprising. // Episode notes: https://www.lastborninthewilderness.com/episodes/alley-valkyrie-5 // Sustain + support: https://www.patreon.com/lastborninthewilderness // Donate: https://www.paypal.me/lastbornpodcast // Subscribe: https://pod.link/1169842000
