Bastille Day
From communes to NATO-leavings to McDonald's-burning farmers to immigrant slums . . . le bel hexagone, la France. They're like America would be if we weren't fundamentally Anglo-Saxon.
Of course the Alliance Francaise has a July 14 Bastille Day thaing (on July 21) and, uh, tickets cost $130. Man! We won't go there without being the "watchdogs or servants of capitalism."
If you're really trying to connect with Francophone life in Atlanta, try Atlanta Accueil. It's a website for francophone expats and features a fairly well-visited forum. ¶ 10:13 PM
