The year 1968 was pivotal to the political, social, and cultural histories not only of the United States but of France and many other countries across the globe. The events in Paris that year were part of a decade that saw many protests-in support of the American civil rights movement and feminism, and against American involvement in the Vietnam War, to name a few.

The photographer's keen eye and artistic sense are evident in these images, which represent events that still reverberate almost forty years later. Serge Hambourg is an independent photographer who worked for Le nouvel observateur from1966 through 1977.
