Why It Matters
The coordination of yellow vests organizes weekly demonstrations on Saturdays to denounce the high cost of living, while various groups mobilize on other themes.
The coordination of yellow vests, youth organizations, certain unions and other organizations such as the children's collective and those mobilized against the "license to kill" of the police are calling for demonstrations on Saturday, which should converge in certain cities, notably Paris, in common processions.
The children's collective had already planned to demonstrate on Saturday "against violence against children and adolescents" and various human rights organizations to march against the proposed law on the presumption of legitimate use of weapons by the police, which amounts, according to them, to "a license to kill".
The movement which organized climate marches on September 26 had also marked this date for new demonstrations “for the present and the future of children”. The coordination of the yellow vests, which has contributed since October 17 to the organization of demonstrations on Saturdays throughout France to denounce the “high cost of living”, calls for its “Act V” to support and participate in all the mobilizations carried out this Saturday, November 14. Call joined by youth organizations still mobilized for better study conditions. The collaborative map of the coordination of yellow vests lists 164 demonstrations throughout France on Thursday morning for Saturday.
In Paris, a common procession under discussion
“In many places, due to pressure from the prefectures, all the mobilizations (children's, against the license to kill, against the high cost of living... Editor's note) will have a common route or a single gathering point,” indicates Benjamin Ball, member of this coordination. Last Saturday, the coordination called for disobedience by gathering at Place de la Concorde in Paris despite a ban from the police headquarters, refusing to join an authorized inter-union route, but only a few dozen people responded. A sign according to Mr. Ball “that we are not yet ready for mass civil disobedience”.
