In Paris, there is an increasing mobilization against the immigration law, as demonstrated by a recent assembly at the Flèche d’or concert hall in the XXth arrondissement. This assembly, as reported by Paris Luttes Info, deviates from the regular Monday night meetings with the addition of new participants. The sense of urgency and determination is palpable as individuals from diverse backgrounds unite against what they perceive as a racist and dangerous legislation.

Attendees, including first-timer Radj, express their reasons for joining the cause and inquire about potential mobilization in other territories. Key speakers at the assembly vow to resist the law’s implementation and emphasize the government’s proximity to the extreme right.

The growing resistance is reflected in various forms of protest, such as student demonstrations and strikes by educators and legal professionals, indicating the emergence of a new and energetic movement. The movement is awaiting a decision from the Constitutional Council by January 26, and organizers are preparing for widespread demonstrations and emphasizing the importance of collective action.

Efforts are being made to build a broader movement, garnering support from labor unions, with the goal of creating a sustained protest similar to the movement against pension reforms. The intersection of racial and colonial issues is also highlighted, emphasizing the need for unity across different causes and groups.

Overall, the resistance to the immigration law in Paris reflects a shared determination to fight against perceived injustice. The ongoing mobilization demonstrates strong solidarity and will continue to evolve as preparations are made for future actions in response to critical decisions.
