The adventures of Tintin



Breaking Free





Yep, this is the on-line version of this rather wonderful parody (or is it a pastiche ? whatever...) of Hergé's creation, which can be disseminated freely for revolutionary/non-capitalist purposes, which is what I'm doing. In case you're interested, there is also a version of the comic in Spanish.



There is obviously an awful lot to say about the political relevance of Breaking Free, but I can't be arsed getting into that right now, so just read the fucker (you can also download a zipped file of it ). And then drop me a line ( sylvestreb2000 at no-log.org ) Oh, and I'm preparing a French version, and if you want to buy a paper version you can go there.

Here's an interview with the Coup's Boots Riley I fished from somewhere, yummy food for thought. Here's the band's website.



English-speaking readers and English-reading speakers are probably noticing there's much more to read on the French side of this page. Don't worry too much, or if you want to worry, do, and then learn French, and find out whether it was worth worrying.



Aw, alright, i'll throw some links at you : how about democracy now ! (one-hour show every day from a left perspective, very professional and groovy music too) ? And, I don't know, I'm into this broadband media stuff at the moment so should check out www.archive.org (lovely huge site with lots of public domain/open license videos, feature films from the 30s and 40s, and, wow ! a 1963 2-hour debate with civil rights leaders including Malcolm X ! ) and www.bedazzled.tv for entertainment from the vaults.



Oh, and by the way. Do you understand Swedish ? If you do, or if you're looking for a motivation for learning it, go there.
