It must take a lot of determination to follow that path. Maybe you'll be the historian to throw some new light on the French Revolution. I'd be quite excited to brag to other history nerds that I spoke to you online, heh.
That's interesting. Citizenships for blacks in 18th century? And I thought Pitt the Younger was such an amazing human rights activist for advocating the abolition of slave trade.
Yes, I read that he stood up for the rights of the Jews and Protestants, quite contrary to the absolutist kings that brutally persecuted the Huguenots. I had no idea actors were deprived of their rights in 18th century France however, especially when considering that one of the members of the Committee of Public Safety was a former actor. The improvements in human rights in France after the Revolution are remarkable, but I would imagine that such legal advancements were promptly retracted by Napoleon. Do you know if free blacks in France had voting rights as well? Just curious.
Oh, indeed. The fact that so many people hate their occupations is quite sad.
