A Good Old-Fashioned Strike

Thursday, October 18, 2007 | comments (2)
The French do just about everything with style, including staging a protest, apparently. The current strike by the union of utilities and the union of transport, which has most of Paris shut down is being referred to as "Black Thursday," but in this piece, NPR correspondent Eleanor Beardsley describes it as more of a "festival" or "country fair," complete with hot-air balloons, grilled sausage, and hanging out on the grass. Vive la France!
