Pierre Mendes France 

Born in 1907, he was a French radical-socialist politician, in his youth he fought within the League of Republican and Socialist University Action.

He was elected deputy of Eure in 1932 and became mayor of Louviers in 1935, and supported the Popular Front.

During the Second World War, Pierre Mendès France, who joined London, fought in the Free French Air Force and was a member of the French Committee for National Liberation.

In 1944, de Gaulle appointed him Minister of the Economy, but Pierre Mendès France resigned in April 1945 when the general refused to follow his austerity policy.

From 1946 to 1951, he moved away from politics and he worked for the International Monetary Fund of which he was elected president in 1948.

He was President of the Council from 1954 to 1955 and he signed the Geneva Agreements ending the Indochina War.

He then militated in the United Socialist Party and participated in the recomposition of the socialist left.

Pierre Mendès France retains the image of a model politician who marked the history of the IVth Republic, he died in 1982.

LGBT Rights

Our students in 1ere have worked on LGBT rights... Here are some of their pieces of work ;-)
Enjoy !! 



The LGBT is a community created to fight against homophobia and discriminations. LGBT means
Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender. Today, we add a + at the end of the acronym to include all the sexual identities.

In France, the movement started in 1954 thanks to André Baudry with the creation of the
magazine “Arcadie” and in the USA in 1969.
It’s thanks to all these movements, demonstrations, and even riots that a lot of associations with different names have been able to see the light of day!

Finally, the acronym LGBT was adopted in 1980.

Created a long time ago, this community is representing by a rainbow flag invented by Gilbert Baker.

On this flag, each colour has a meaning :

This flag also called “pride flag” had before eight colours but because of the lack of availability of the colours pink and turquoise during the printing of the flag, they were removed.

What about LGBT Rights in Europe?
