Impact relayed, via Politis, a text signed by more than 140 personalities from different backgrounds, who denounced the normalization of racism in France after what they described as a racist terrorist attack in Trappes and La Verrière. The signatories mentioned the death of Pengo Bossio Wangi, 26 years old, and believed that the spread of hateful discourse in the media and political class, particularly since the violence of October 17, had contributed to creating an environment conducive to new racist violence. They also condemned the silence of the authorities and the absence, according to them, of calls for restraint and warnings against possible legal actions. The signatories stated that Pengo Bossio Wangi had not been targeted at random and cited the murders of Aboubakar Cissé and Hichem Miraoui, as well as attacks against Black, Arab, and Muslim individuals. They called for support for families and collectives and for the fight against racism. #Racisme #Solidarité #Dénonciation (translated)
