en) France, Alternative Libertaire AL #238 - The far right attempts a takeover of the popular neighborhoods (fr, pt)

Early this year, following the Valls-Dieudonn? case and the withdrawal of schools 
initiated by Farida Belghoul, we have seen the attempt of a political offensive of the 
extreme right on the Muslim populations of the Popular neighborhoods that was able to meet 
some disturbing echoes. ---- Winter we would like to forget: case Valls-Dieudonn? 
mobilization to remove their children from school due to massive sending SMS including in 
some Muslim networks, participation of "neighborhood youth" to the far right demonstration 
Day ? anger and rallies support Dieudonn?, a banner "French Muslims say no to gay 
marriage" homophobic head of the procession ... How some ranks of the reaction in France 
he managed to mobilize their side Muslim populations including Popular neighborhoods? To 
understand this phenomenon, we must first distinguish the capacity to mobilize 
conservative networks and white reactionary bourgeois Catholics to promote a return to the 
moral order. The offensive began in 2011 with Civitas against theater plays deemed 
blasphemous. In Paris, SOS toddlers was also released formaldehyde to return to the 
offensive against abortion clinics. And homophobic massive mobilizations of AKI for all 
throughout France helped popularize the reactionary religious conceptions.

Community withdrawal

But also affect the Muslim population concentrated mainly in poor neighborhoods is through 
the figure of Farida Belghoul rallied to Soral, the so-called "gender theory" threatening 
children enrolled es was relayed with a some success in targeted schools. So in the first 
one-family and religious has been breached angle. This requires a lot of work via 
deconstruction including schools and social centers of the underlying issues, but without 
contempt on the values of secularism inclusive which to promote togetherness.

As to the extent of around the "scoop" and complotiste and anti-Semitic worldview 
maintained by trade Dieudonn? is input the extreme right another point towards including 
popular neighborhoods . The offensive is led by the "National Socialist" Alain Soral that 
has aggregate figures including some immigrant its Equality and Reconciliation network 
whose links with the extreme right were found. The confusion is around the imposture
"anti-system" and "Zionist" posture, hiding a structural antisemitism. And advocated by 
Soral model is a model integrating community nationalist part of the French youth of
immigrant origin stigmatized and left behind. But we must not underestimate the 
responsibility of the government did not carry that antisocial policy pr?carisant more 
popular districts in their entirety, but who distinguished himself through racist policies 
and statements Islamophobic that have nothing to envy to the Sarkozy years ... All this 
context - that only a substantial mobilizing alternative, solidarity with social movements 
could thwart - today brings us to this result. It is to respond and politicize our 
neighborhoods, and to provide new frameworks of solidarity on the ruins of neoliberalism. 
Fortunately, this would not happen without reaction, other voices were heard. Kaissa
Titous, former Walker in 1983 she published a response to the latter accusing him of
"betraying our neighborhoods": "Why, we who have suffered racism, relegation, stigma
should we take the religious discourse of the extreme right, and the right of religious 
associations, and in turn denounce scapegoats? Why our turn stigmatize typing on gays or 
Jews? ".
