#OTD On Jan. 13, 1898, Émile Zola wrote an open letter titled "J'accuse!" to defend Alfred Dreyfus, a Jewish officer falsely accused of treason. It denounced the military cover up and antisemitism to demand justice. The piece appeared in the newspaper L'Aurore.

French-Jewish artillery captain #AlfredDreyfus was wrongly convicted of treason in a military court on #ThisDayInHistory in 1894. No evidence was presented; the #DreyfusAffair was #Judeophobic scapegoating for the #FrancoPrussianWar loss & a clear example of French #antisemitism.

Emile Zola wrote his famous article “J’accuse” which led to a new trial four years after the first condemnation. Dreyfus was declared guilty again despite the fact that the real spy, commandant Esterhazy had been discovered but declared innocent.

What a handsome young man Alfred Dreyfus was!
He was born in Alsace before it became German after the 1870 war.

Whatever the cause, his legacy was secure. He had forced France to confront its own prejudice, proving that the pen could shake empires and outlive those who sought to silence it.

I learned from #CBSSundayMorning that today is the 130th anniversary of the unjust conviction of #AlfredDreyfus.
In commemoration thereof, I shall spend the day exclaiming, “J’accuse!” and pointing at the cats.

@franceinter.fr le podcast en 10 épisodes de #PhilippeCollin sur #AlfredDreyfus est passionnant. Écouté cette semaine j'ai beaucoup appris/compris. A écouter sans modération
An extraordinary discovery: photographs from the Rennes trial of #AlfredDreyfus. As we enter even darker times in which 'blaming the Others' is stupidly popular, this is a reminder of where baying mobs lead: to profound injustice.
