Last Friday, April 25, Aboubakar Cissé, a 22-year-old Malian man, was murdered while he was alone in the Khadidja mosque at the Grand-Combe. A murder filmed and punctuated by Islamophobic insults: ” your allah shitty … I planted her buttocks ». If justice has not retained the “terrorist” nature of the act, contrary to what the family lawyer had asked for, in the absence of ” ideological claim or [de] link with an organization », The racist nature of this assassination is no doubt.
The death of Aboubakar aroused a large anger, which spoke in particular during a rally in Paris on May 27. This crime is indeed the latest example of the consequences of omnipresent Islamophobia in the country, which has only been strengthening in recent decades. In a platform published in Politicalmany organizations and personalities highlight the responsibility of the State, successive governments and the media in this murder, explaining:
« His murder does not exist without the legislation which, for 20 years, stigmatize and exclude Muslims in the name of a misguided secularism. It does not exist without the searches of thousands of Muslim households carried out under the aegis of a so -called socialist president after the attacks of 2015. There is not without the law on separatism, without the dissolution of the collectives of struggles against Islamophobia. It does not take place without the media obsession around Islam, from vulgar CNews trays to refined intellectuals which under the guise of fighting fanaticism spit their hatred of Arabs and blacks daily. »
An observation which jumps all the more in the time when the Minister of the Interior can affirm ” Down with the veil! In the middle of an Islamophobic meeting, threatens to ban the university veil, and while attacks aimed at mosques have been linked in recent years.
In this context, There will be many and numerous to the demonstrations called by the signatories of the tribune of Politicalamong which the CCIE, the Assembly of the districts, Palestine emergency, the Adama Committee, the Solidarity Marche, the CSP75, LFI, the NPA-A or permanent revolution. Against state racism, the extreme right and the government which lies the way, to demand the repeal of all Islamophobic and racist laws, you have to face the street!
In Paris, the mobilization will leave at 2 p.m. from the Place de la République.
