Demonstrations are flourishing here and there, in the West as well as in the East, in the South as well as in the North, to revolt against national or colonial powers (for example, against the French presence in West Africa, Mali, Burkina Faso, etc.), against the oppressor, sometimes, alas, for the benefit of new dictators whom our governments are quick to stigmatise in order to divert attention - when they don't endorse them if they are in their own interests.
Everywhere, crowds are founding to demand justice, equality and a solidarity that has ever been so violated...

Les manifestations fleurissent ici et là, en occident comme en orient, au sud comme au nord, pour se révolter contre les pouvoirs nationaux ou coloniaux (contre la présence française en Afrique occidentale, Mali, Burkina Faso, etc.), contre l'oppresseur, parfois hélas au profit de nouveaux dictateurs que nos gouvernants ont vite fait de stigmatiser pour détourner l'attention - quand ils ne les adoubent pas s'ils servent leurs intérêts.
Partout des foules se fondent pour clamer justice, égalité et une solidarité jamais autant bafouée...

By Leonard Cohen

When the union’s inspiration,
Through the worker’s blood shall run,
Anywhere beneath the sun,
There can be no power greater
Yet what force on earth is weaker
Than the feeble strength of one
But the union makes us strong.

Refrain
Solidarity for ever (ter)
For the union makes us strong.
