This is not Amerikkka : Nancy's Story Part 1


Listen Later

 
In conversation with  Nancy,  a young queer WOC,  francophone,  who is currently awaiting the results of a judiciary   decision.   Police arrested her for allegedly breaking the 'l'outrage' law, against expressing contempt to an police officer, after her attendance at a gillet noir protest.   Her arrest, unfortunately, is far from an anomaly when comes to POC
 in France, (disproportionately) . What's also important about her story is her road to politicization, which included her time in the states during some of the most turbulent years in recent US history : between 2014 (which saw the Ferguson riots and the birth of the Black Lives Matter movement) until  2017,  one year after the (non)election of the 45th US president .   In this first part we  learn about her arrest in Paris but also discuss her time spent in America.
