Keeping Democracy Alive with Burt Cohen

I intend to shine light onto events that at first glance seems inconsequential and accidental, but something more consequential and sinisterly deliberate upon second glance. I wish too, if nothing else, encourage the readers to question with extreme boldness the motives and intent of those in the nation’s leadership positions, began conversations of matters of true importance and relevance, and reignite reverence for the principles of the organic Constitution for the united states of America and Divine Providence that has provided us unparalleled prosperity and the principles for which they stand. At the end of the day it is the people who will decide the destiny of the nation.

Fylkespodden

Bastille Day: The Dawn of French Liberty On the morning of July 14, 1789, Paris awoke to the rumblings of revolution. The air was thick with tension, the streets alive with whispers of change. For years, the people of France had suffered under the weight of an oppressive monarchy, a system of privilege that favored the few at the expense of the many. Now, as the sun rose over the ancient city, casting long shadows across its narrow streets and grand boulevards, the citizens of Paris were ready to seize their destiny. The Bastille, a medieval fortress turned prison, loomed over the eastern edge of the city. Its thick stone walls and imposing towers had long stood as a symbol of royal authority and arbitrary power. Within its depths lay not only a handful of prisoners but also a cache of weapons and gunpowder – precious resources in a city teetering on the brink of insurrection. As dawn broke, small groups of Parisians began to gather in the streets. Men and women from all walks of life – artisans, shopkeepers, laborers, and even some members of the bourgeoisie – came together, united in their desire for change. The spark of revolution had been lit in the days prior, with news of King Louis XVI's dismissal of his popular finance minister, Jacques Necker, spreading like wildfire through the city. The dismissal of Necker was seen as a direct attack on the reforms that many hoped would alleviate the crushing poverty and inequality that plagued France. It was the latest in a long series of missteps by a monarchy increasingly out of touch with the needs and aspirations of its people. As word spread of Necker's dismissal, so too did rumors of an impending military crackdown on the restive populace. In the Palais-Royal, that great crucible of revolutionary fervor, a young lawyer named Camille Desmoulins leapt onto a table, pistol in hand, and called the people to arms. "To arms, citizens!" he cried, his voice carrying across the crowded garden. "The moment of crisis has arrived. Necker has been dismissed. This dismissal is the tocsin of a Saint Bartholomew for patriots!" Desmoulins' impassioned plea struck a chord with the gathered crowd. The memory of the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre, a bloody episode from France's religious wars, hung heavy in the air. Many feared that a similar fate awaited those who dared to challenge the authority of the crown. As the morning wore on, the crowds swelled. What had begun as small gatherings soon coalesced into a vast throng, tens of thousands strong, moving with purpose through the streets of Paris. They raided the Hôtel des Invalides, seizing muskets and cannons from its armory. But it was gunpowder they needed most, and for that, they turned their eyes to the Bastille. Bernard-René de Launay, the governor of the Bastille, watched with growing alarm as the crowd gathered outside the fortress walls. De Launay was no stranger to unrest – he had been appointed to his post in part because of his experience in crowd control. But nothing in his long career had prepared him for the sea of humanity that now surged against the Bastille's gates. At first, de Launay attempted to negotiate. He invited representatives of the crowd into the fortress to verify that there were indeed no political prisoners being held within its walls. But the people were past the point of negotiation. They demanded the surrender of the fortress and the release of its gunpowder stores. As tensions mounted, shots rang out. It remains unclear to this day who fired first, but the consequences were immediate and bloody. The crowd, enraged by what they saw as a betrayal, surged forward with renewed determination. The siege of the Bastille had begun in earnest. For hours, the battle raged. The defenders of the Bastille, a mix of French and Swiss guards, fought valiantly against the overwhelming numbers of the attackers. Musket fire crackled across the July sky, while makeshift battering rams pounded against the fortress gates. As the day wore on, the tide of battle began to turn. The arrival of deserters from the French Guard, bringing with them much-needed military expertise and additional firepower, tipped the scales in favor of the revolutionaries. By mid-afternoon, it was clear that the Bastille could not hold. De Launay, realizing the hopelessness of his position, ordered his men to cease fire. He attempted to negotiate a surrender, but in the chaos of the moment, his intentions were misunderstood. As he emerged from the fortress, he was seized by the crowd. In the melee that followed, de Launay was brutally killed, his head mounted on a pike and paraded through the streets of Paris. The fall of the Bastille sent shockwaves through France and beyond. In the smoldering ruins of the once-mighty fortress, the revolutionaries found not the hundreds of political prisoners they had imagined, but only seven inmates – four forgers, two lunatics, and one dissolute aristocrat imprisoned at the request of his family. Yet the symbolic power of the Bastille's fall far outweighed its practical significance. News of the event spread rapidly across France, carried by riders and messengers to every corner of the nation. In Versailles, the opulent palace that had long served as the seat of absolute monarchy, King Louis XVI was awakened in the night with word of the Bastille's fall. "Is it a revolt?" the king asked sleepily. "No, Sire," replied the Duke de La Rochefoucauld-Liancourt. "It is a revolution." The duke's words would prove prophetic. The fall of the Bastille marked not just the end of a day of violence in Paris, but the beginning of a new era in French – and indeed, world – history. It was a watershed moment, a point of no return in the long struggle between the old order of absolute monarchy and the new ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity. In the days that followed, the revolution gathered momentum. The National Assembly, which had been formed in the weeks prior to July 14, seized the initiative. They began the monumental task of drafting a new constitution for France, one that would enshrine the rights of man and citizen. The impact of the Bastille's fall reverberated far beyond the borders of France. Across Europe, monarchs watched with growing alarm as news of the events in Paris spread. Many feared that the revolutionary fervor would spread to their own realms, toppling thrones that had stood for centuries. In England, the young poet William Wordsworth captured the excitement of the moment in his poem "The Prelude": "Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, But to be young was very heaven!" Wordsworth's words encapsulated the sense of possibility and hope that the French Revolution inspired in its early days. For many, it seemed that a new world was being born, one in which the old hierarchies and injustices would be swept away, replaced by a society founded on reason and the innate rights of man. Yet even as the revolutionaries celebrated their victory, darker currents were stirring beneath the surface of French society. The fall of the Bastille had unleashed forces that would prove difficult, if not impossible, to control. The violence that had marked the storming of the fortress was but a preview of the bloodshed to come. In the countryside, news of the Bastille's fall sparked a wave of peasant uprisings known as the Great Fear. Fueled by rumors of aristocratic plots and foreign invasions, peasants across France took up arms, attacking manor houses and destroying the records of their feudal obligations. The National Assembly, faced with this rising tide of rural violence, took decisive action. On August 4, 1789, in a night-long session that would go down in history, the representatives of the nobility and clergy voluntarily renounced their ancient privileges. It was a moment of high drama and noble sentiment, but it also marked the beginning of the end for the old feudal order in France. As summer gave way to autumn, the revolution continued to unfold at a dizzying pace. In October, a mob of Parisian women, angered by the high price and scarcity of bread, marched on Versailles. They forced the royal family to return with them to Paris, effectively making the king a prisoner of the revolution. The following year, on July 14, 1790, a grand festival was held on the Champ de Mars to commemorate the fall of the Bastille. The Fête de la Fédération, as it was known, was intended to celebrate the unity of the French nation and the new constitutional monarchy. King Louis XVI took an oath to uphold the constitution, and for a brief moment, it seemed that France might find a peaceful path forward, balancing the traditions of monarchy with the new ideals of the revolution. But the unity celebrated at the Fête de la Fédération would prove short-lived. The revolution, set in motion by the fall of the Bastille, continued to radicalize. The king, never fully reconciled to his diminished role, attempted to flee the country in June 1791. He was caught at Varennes and brought back to Paris in disgrace, his flight seen as proof of his treachery to the revolutionary cause. As the revolution progressed, the memory of July 14, 1789, took on an almost mythic quality. The Bastille, once a symbol of royal oppression, became in its absence a powerful emblem of revolutionary achievement. Its stones, carted away and sold as souvenirs, were transformed into tangible relics of the birth of French liberty. The site where the Bastille had stood did not remain empty for long. In its place rose a column dedicated to liberty, topped with a statue of a winged figure – the Génie de la Liberté. This column, which still stands today, serves as a constant reminder of the events of July 14 and the ideals that inspired them. As the years passed, July 14 became enshrined as a national holiday in France. The first official celebration of Bastille Day, as it came to be known internationally, took place on July 14, 1880.

But nothing in his long career had prepared him for the sea of humanity that now surged against the Bastille's gates. At first, de Launay attempted to negotiate. He invited representatives of the crowd into the fortress to verify that there were indeed no political prisoners being held within its walls. But the people were past the point of negotiation. They demanded the surrender of the fortress and the release of its gunpowder stores. As tensions mounted, shots rang out. It remains unclear to this day who fired first, but the consequences were immediate and bloody. The crowd, enraged by what they saw as a betrayal, surged forward with renewed determination. The siege of the Bastille had begun in earnest. For hours, the battle raged. The defenders of the Bastille, a mix of French and Swiss guards, fought valiantly against the overwhelming numbers of the attackers. Musket fire crackled across the July sky, while makeshift battering rams pounded against the fortress gates. As the day wore on, the tide of battle began to turn. The arrival of deserters from the French Guard, bringing with them much-needed military expertise and additional firepower, tipped the scales in favor of the revolutionaries. By mid-afternoon, it was clear that the Bastille could not hold. De Launay, realizing the hopelessness of his position, ordered his men to cease fire. He attempted to negotiate a surrender, but in the chaos of the moment, his intentions were misunderstood. As he emerged from the fortress, he was seized by the crowd. In the melee that followed, de Launay was brutally killed, his head mounted on a pike and paraded through the streets of Paris. The fall of the Bastille sent shockwaves through France and beyond. In the smoldering ruins of the once-mighty fortress, the revolutionaries found not the hundreds of political prisoners they had imagined, but only seven inmates – four forgers, two lunatics, and one dissolute aristocrat imprisoned at the request of his family. Yet the symbolic power of the Bastille's fall far outweighed its practical significance. News of the event spread rapidly across France, carried by riders and messengers to every corner of the nation. In Versailles, the opulent palace that had long served as the seat of absolute monarchy, King Louis XVI was awakened in the night with word of the Bastille's fall. "Is it a revolt?" the king asked sleepily. "No, Sire," replied the Duke de La Rochefoucauld-Liancourt. "It is a revolution." The duke's words would prove prophetic. The fall of the Bastille marked not just the end of a day of violence in Paris, but the beginning of a new era in French – and indeed, world – history. It was a watershed moment, a point of no return in the long struggle between the old order of absolute monarchy and the new ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity. In the days that followed, the revolution gathered momentum. The National Assembly, which had been formed in the weeks prior to July 14, seized the initiative. They began the monumental task of drafting a new constitution for France, one that would enshrine the rights of man and citizen. The impact of the Bastille's fall reverberated far beyond the borders of France. Across Europe, monarchs watched with growing alarm as news of the events in Paris spread. Many feared that the revolutionary fervor would spread to their own realms, toppling thrones that had stood for centuries. In England, the young poet William Wordsworth captured the excitement of the moment in his poem "The Prelude": "Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive, But to be young was very heaven!" Wordsworth's words encapsulated the sense of possibility and hope that the French Revolution inspired in its early days. For many, it seemed that a new world was being born, one in which the old hierarchies and injustices would be swept away, replaced by a society founded on reason and the innate rights of man. Yet even as the revolutionaries celebrated their victory, darker currents were stirring beneath the surface of French society. The fall of the Bastille had unleashed forces that would prove difficult, if not impossible, to control. The violence that had marked the storming of the fortress was but a preview of the bloodshed to come. In the countryside, news of the Bastille's fall sparked a wave of peasant uprisings known as the Great Fear. Fueled by rumors of aristocratic plots and foreign invasions, peasants across France took up arms, attacking manor houses and destroying the records of their feudal obligations. The National Assembly, faced with this rising tide of rural violence, took decisive action. On August 4, 1789, in a night-long session that would go down in history, the representatives of the nobility and clergy voluntarily renounced their ancient privileges. It was a moment of high drama and noble sentiment, but it also marked the beginning of the end for the old feudal order in France. As summer gave way to autumn, the revolution continued to unfold at a dizzying pace. In October, a mob of Parisian women, angered by the high price and scarcity of bread, marched on Versailles. They forced the royal family to return with them to Paris, effectively making the king a prisoner of the revolution. The following year, on July 14, 1790, a grand festival was held on the Champ de Mars to commemorate the fall of the Bastille. The Fête de la Fédération, as it was known, was intended to celebrate the unity of the French nation and the new constitutional monarchy. King Louis XVI took an oath to uphold the constitution, and for a brief moment, it seemed that France might find a peaceful path forward, balancing the traditions of monarchy with the new ideals of the revolution. But the unity celebrated at the Fête de la Fédération would prove short-lived. The revolution, set in motion by the fall of the Bastille, continued to radicalize. The king, never fully reconciled to his diminished role, attempted to flee the country in June 1791. He was caught at Varennes and brought back to Paris in disgrace, his flight seen as proof of his treachery to the revolutionary cause. As the revolution progressed, the memory of July 14, 1789, took on an almost mythic quality. The Bastille, once a symbol of royal oppression, became in its absence a powerful emblem of revolutionary achievement. Its stones, carted away and sold as souvenirs, were transformed into tangible relics of the birth of French liberty. The site where the Bastille had stood did not remain empty for long. In its place rose a column dedicated to liberty, topped with a statue of a winged figure – the Génie de la Liberté. This column, which still stands today, serves as a constant reminder of the events of July 14 and the ideals that inspired them. As the years passed, July 14 became enshrined as a national holiday in France. The first official celebration of Bastille Day, as it came to be known internationally, took place on July 14, 1880. By this time, France had
