In recent days, with the Euro, it is the members of the French team who have invited the French to mobilize against the RN but above all to vote. Words that could touch a youth increasingly disinterested in politics.
After Thuram, Mbappé and Koundé in particular, it is another star who inspires a part of French youth, Aya Nakamura. The singer of “Pookie” hesitated for a long time before speaking out on a subject as important as voting. But her particular position as an artist and a woman of color forced her to come out of her silence.
“I am well placed to understand and know the place of racism in our country. They are the same ones who get pissed off when we shine because we haven’t finished shining. And yes I am discreet on these subjects, sometimes we don’t feel relevant and legitimate enough to speak and say the right things on areas that we don’t control. That doesn’t mean we don’t have an opinion. Now I understand that my position as an artist requires me to speak out, because it is an important moment for all of us. So on Sunday we are all going to vote, and against the only extreme to condemn because there is only one.”tweeted the French artist on X, formerly Twitter.
