Solidarity with Workers Who Don't Have Papers

Since I've been writing about Resistance the past couple of days, I thought it would be a good idea to show a photo with a bit of resistance that turned up on the Champ-Elysee in Paris.

The Champ-Elysee in Paris is a lot like Times Square in New York, except the sidewalks are much wider and there are trees on each side.

This photo was taken on a Sunday at a nice restaurant - the chair was sitting next to the section with the outdoor tables, while an African group played their music.

It is not so much about the group wanting money, very few passersby were giving anything - and when they did it was less than a euro. It was the public nature of the statement:

Solidarite avec Travailleurs sans papers -

Solidarity with Workers Who Don't Have Papers
