Saint-Sulpice Church & Paris Sky view: The Church of Saint-Sulpice is a Catholic church in Paris, France, on the east side of Place Saint-Sulpice, in the Latin Quarter of the 6th arrondissement. Only slightly smaller than Notre-Dame and Saint-Eustache, it is the third largest church in the city. It is dedicated to Sulpitius the Pious. Wikipedia

French news :

More protests organised in various French cities yesterday, this time to address the government's police repression against protesters, especially in Sainte Soline last week where in the span of a few hours 3,200 cops and military gendarmes threw 5,000 tear gas grenades and 89 sting ball grenades and shot 81 rubber bullets at protesters, resulting in 200 wounded (and 2 people in a coma). The Minister of the Interior told a lot of lies about what happened but there were MPs and journalists in attendance at this protest who told a different story.

They're singing "Down with the police state" (in Poitiers) and chanting "Police state, you won't keep us from protesting" in Paris.

The authorities are so suspicious of protesters in the current climate that the Prefect of the Grand Est region tweeted that while trying to quell an undeclared protest in Strasbourg yesterday the police found "rocks and pebbles hidden under hedges" in a park. So that's where we're at. After May 68 the Police Prefect in Paris asked for cobblestone streets in the Latin Quarter to be covered with asphalt so protesters could no longer throw rocks at cops which at least made sense, but this week a Prefect boasted about police taking action to remove subversive pebbles from the ground in a park.

On this day, 25 May 1926, Ukrainian Jewish anarchist Shalom Schwartzbard approached Symon Petliura on Rue Racine in Paris' Latin Quarter and asked him, “Are you Mr. Petliura?” before shooting him five times shouting “This for the pogroms; this for the massacres; this for the victims.” When police arrived, Schwartzbard told them “I have killed a great assassin.” Petliura had been supreme commander of the Ukrainian army during the Russian revolution and ensuing civil war during which approximately 50,000 Jewish people were murdered in pogroms, including 14 members of Schwartzbard's family. In Ukraine, Schwartzbard had helped organise the defence of Jewish areas from pogroms, and later enthusiastically joined the Russian revolution. He fought in a Red Guard militia made up mostly of Ukrainian anarchists and Jews, and later joined the Red Army until his unit refused an order to undertake a suicidal mission, for which 24 of his comrades were killed, but Schwartzbard managed to escape. In France, he was put on trial for Petliura's murder but as acquitted after the jury decided Petliura got what he deserved.
