Today is the anniversary of the victory of a militant struggle in France.
White men of left and right coordinated to push young brown and black women back to their rightful place: subaltern.October 2003: Lycée Henri Wallon in Aubervilliers expelled two sisters for wearing headscarves. A deafening political and media controversy ensued. The polemic obtained a law enacted on 15 March 2004, that banned girls wearing headscarves from schools.
Nathalie (in 2015): "I have children to feed and I’m looking for work, so I’m taking off my headscarf. I have no choice. No choice."
