Description: It was 150 years ago when citizens of Paris rose up against the government and declared independence. The Paris Commune of 1871 was a model for the revolutions of the 20th century — but the violence it unleashed, the use of propaganda, and the demonizing of the "other" all foreshadowed the abuses of state power to come. *This episode originally aired May 28, 2015.
