📅 15 December 1902 📍 Algerije

The trial of Algerians accused after the Margueritte uprising opened in Montpellier. The prosecution moved resistance from the colony into a French courtroom, where colonial categories and the unequal structures of empire shaped proceedings. The case drew attention to settler violence and dispossession, though the judicial record must be read critically because it was created by the colonial state.
