📅 10 September 2015 📍 France

A group of mostly Sudanese refugees had set up camp outside the 18th arrondissement town hall after an earlier encampment was cleared. StreetPress reported their demand for asylum and their slogan, “Liberty, equality, dignity,” while police sought to prevent the camp. The action brought people seeking asylum into direct negotiation with local government and residents, challenging the gap between republican equality language and migrants’ access to shelter and legal protection.
