Every day. 4 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: Today is June. The day was due in Paris during 5 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: the June Days Uprising, a French photographer named Charlotte Francois 6 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: Thibaut took the first photograph used to illustrate a newspaper report. 7 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: The June Days Uprising occurred after the French Second Republic 8 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: instituted democratic reforms. One such reform was the creation of 9 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 1: the National Workshops, which provided work for the unemployed. But 10 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: a new assembly of mainly moderates and conservatives was elected 11 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: and they shut down the National Workshops.

And on the twenty three the so called 19 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: June Day's Uprising began when barricades went up in many 20 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,240 Speaker 1: working class sections of the city. The National Guard was 21 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: sent to Paris to stop the writing. General Louis Lugene 22 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: Cavignac used artillery against the barricades, and after just four 23 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 1: days of conflict, the uprising had ended and the working 24 00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:49,720 Speaker 1: class movement had been suppressed. More than ten thousand Parisians 25 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: were arrested, of which several thousand were eggs out to 26 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: Algeria as punishment. Several thousand troops and Parisians were killed 27 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: during this uprising.
