For black people in France, protests following the killing of George Floyd in police custody in Minneapolis are deeply personal
ROUEN, France - A tear rolled down Mathilla Diagana’s cheek as she sat in her student dormitory room in the northern French city of Rouen and watched an online video of a Minneapolis police officer kneeling on the neck of George Floyd.
Diagana’s biological father is from Mauritania in northwest Africa. At the age of 10 months, she was put in the care of a white foster family who raised her in a village in Normandy. When she started working summer jobs, people made remarks about her skin colour and hair. When police checked up on a student party, she felt officers were especially aggressive towards her.
“Racism has no place in our society, and even less so in our police,” he said in a speech as he promised to ban the use of chokeholds to restrain suspects.Carole, a 51-year-old woman who moved to France as a child from Cameroon, attended a “Black Lives Matter” protest in Paris on Saturday with her two sons.
