Louise Michel was a teacher who became a key figure in the Paris Commune and later adopted anarchism while exiled to New Caledonia. Upon her return to France, she emerged as a prominent French anarchist, renowned for her speaking engagements throughout Europe. Known as the “French grande dame of anarchy,” Michel famously carried a black flag during a demonstration in Paris in March 1883, a gesture that would go on to symbolize the anarchist movement.
