68th anniversary of the National Student Day, 19 May 1956
Celebration of the 68th Anniversary of the Student Strike
The day of May 19, 1956 marked the commitment of Algerian youth to the noble principles of November 1st, 1954 and the strengthening of their active participation in the War of National Liberation.
On this occasion, students, at all levels and disciplines, abandoned high schools and universities to defend the national cause alongside the mujahideen.
This date is one of the major events in the history of the Liberation Revolution (1954/1962), demonstrating to French colonialism the unwavering attachment of the elite to its homeland, by shattering its illusions of making it a reservoir aimed at supporting it in the future.
