Monthly Discussion Point: The Sans-Culottes

[trf-chan.livejournal.com]

This month's discussion point is the sans-culottes.

And only six days late, too. :P I know the topics about specific people are generally more popular, but my feeling is that we've got to space them out a bit.

So this month we shall discuss a group - the sans-culottes. The role they played in shaping events, the range of different opinions held on them, all of that fun stuff. GET DISCUSSING. :P

I've contemplated being a dead Robespierre for Halloween (just because I want multiple wounds). I'm more drawn to dead Marie Antoinette, though, because then I'd actually get to be a girl(!).

That was why I chose to be anonymous; I could just as easily be a female as a male sans-culotte. Though there are certainly plenty of female revolutionaries who are known individually, if that's what you're going for.
