Brief interjection... I do recall watching a French movie back in the mid '90s l'haine, live in an indy theater in the US which appears to be set in similar banlieues, around similar issues.

Marched in mass street demos in Paris way back in the dayz...

Seen Far-Right graffiti spray and fliers posted in Marseilles also in the mid '90s, Circle As and Hammers and Cycles over as well, and you walked through the densely populated immigrant quarters down by the old port, many different vibes, languages, food and culture, and never felt afraid.

Anyways time for NOVA Green musical interlude as we take a trip back in the time machine....

Here is the trailer, but would recommend watching the full movie on streaming.




Meanwhile MC Solaar is rocking beats, which a French-Vietnamese friend of mind introduced me to way back in the early / mid 1990s...




A few years later we got...




Obviously this was a big block buster back in the dayz...

French will likely back repression over liberty.

Still Renaud an extremely popular French Rock Star from the dayz has a song which still perhaps has topical relevance.

France needs to bring down the wrath of God against this madness.

Who exactly are you and waltz into Atlas with barely over (100) posts with an R-VA avatar?

Are you looking like France in the late '50s / early'60s with Charles de Gaulle in power, where hundreds or more of French demonstrators died tossed over the bridges of Paris. demonstrating against the French Colonial domination of Algeria...?

Sorry dude--- you sound like an echo chamber within the beltway, likely 19-21 y.o, testing out various talking points within some obscure forum.

Please come back in a couple months while you work on your 100 or 200 level college courses, or maybe finish some sort of weird DC Intern scene.

All academic to you while meanwhile there are people like myself who actually know and sometimes have relatives in France.

Martial Law or Emergency Rule???   Totally Le Pen echo chamber
