« Dans l'urgence de la situation j'ai décidé avec mon label Dionysiac de vous poster cette chanson qui sera arrangée pour mon prochain album sortie 2025
en l'état elle n'est qu'une maquette non mixée non masterisée
j'ai joué la technicienne du son solo.
(...)
OLYMPE pour Olympe de Gouges qui a été guillotinée pour avoir osé écrire et penser et quelques citations de Louise Michel combattantes anarchiste et féministes.
bonne écoute à toutes et à tous »

Today in Labor History November 3, 1793: French playwright, journalist and feminist Olympe de Gouges was guillotined during the Reign of Terror (1793–1794) for attacking the regime of the Revolutionary government and for her association with the moderate Girondists. Her writings on women's rights and abolitionism reached a large audience in many different countries. She was also an outspoken advocate against the slave trade in the French colonies. In her Declaration of the Rights of Woman and of the Female Citizen (1791), she challenged the practice of male authority and the notion of male-female inequality.

Continued thread

That's probably because most of my contact with French came from:

- La Déclaration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen de 1789
- La Déclaration des droits de la femme et de la citoyenne (this was proposed by #OlympeDeGouges in 1791 but it was never voted on)

Oh, and that second text still feels relevant today :ms_angry_steam:
