How times have changed.
He remembers the late 70’s, the early 80’s where resistance could land you in prison at worst, gatherings of the kind that Rosa Luxembourg lobbies for these days were unheard of. Well, unless you lived in San Francisco, presumably, the Americans always did things a little bit differently.
Philippe watches the Pride Parade as much as anyone, meaning that there is hardly anywhere you might look if you want to avoid seeing it on display. The crowds pass right under his window at the Place Guillaume II, the music blaring, and the voices insistent.
Should anyone wish to put these people in prison, you might want to wish them ‘good luck’.
Yes, indeed, times have changed.
