Bally Bagayoko recalled that, on October 17, 1961, nearly 30,000 Algerian men and women demonstrated unarmed in Paris against the curfew and for the equality and independence of Algeria. He mentioned more than 11,000 arrests, hundreds of deaths, and bodies thrown into the Seine, as well as decades of lies. He indicated that a march took place that very evening in Saint-Denis, for the first time, and presented the commemoration as a commitment to pass on this memory. He also paid tribute to Fatima Bedar, aged 15, who had come to support the demonstrators with her schoolbag and was found drowned in the canal. A city garden now bears her name, he wrote, adding that she should not remain an anonymous victim. Bagayoko believed that justice involved recognizing the crime of state. He stated that he had signed a petition from mayors demanding this recognition, the inclusion of October 17 on the calendar of national days, the complete opening of archives, support for transmission to young people, and assistance for survivors and their families. He called on every political force to take a clear stance, deeming 65 years of silence sufficient. According to him, acknowledging the facts was not about repentance, but about facing history and reminding children in working-class neighborhoods that their history mattered. He finally presented the memory of October 17 as a bulwark against the hatred used in electoral campaigns and the sorting of French people according to their origins. #Mémoire #Justice #Égalité (translated)

Charles Alloncle stated that his book, *I Swear to Tell the Whole Truth*, published a week earlier, was number 2 in sales and had already been read by thousands of people. He claimed that France Télévisions and Radio France had refused, despite several requests, to give him airtime to discuss it. He attributed this refusal to a "boycott" and accused the two groups of wanting to hide the use of public money. He notably mentioned karaoke events costing 250 million euros, severance payments exceeding 500,000 euros, billions of euros in contracts made outside public procurement rules, as well as conflicts of interest and nights in luxury hotels at 1,700 euros. Alloncle also accused the media of spreading misleading information and discrediting him, and denounced pressures aimed, according to him, at silencing him, including withheld documents, judicial intimidation, and surveillance in Paris. He wrote that his six-month investigation had uncovered a system serving their interests and that his book described the methods and excesses involved. (translated)
