André Sénik took part in the historic protests of 1968. This oral history interview was conducted by Robert Gildea of the Around1968 project. This international project reconsiders 1968 as a historic moment in the shadow of the Second World War, Cold War and wars of decolonisation, and in the glare of the Swinging Sixties, when a generation of young activists believed that they could change the world and at the same time change themselves.
