France: Learning from the Flames

https://crimethinc.com/Nahel2023

On June 2023, in the city of Nanterre, a suburb of Paris, police brutally murdered a teenager named Nahel Merzouk, continuing a pattern of post-colonial violence directed at a sector of the French population that is treated as second-class citizens.

In response, thousands of people in the outlying banlieues of Paris and other French cities engaged in several days of pitched revolt, attacking town halls and police stations, looting shops, and defending themselves against the police.

In this reflection, a participant looks back on the revolt of June 2023 and the movements that preceded it, exploring the limits they reached and considering what it would take for such movements to bring about revolutionary transformation.
