France: Students, Civil Service Unions, Firefighters Unite In Blockades - PopularResistance.Org
A student movement erupted in France this week, with high school students demonstrating at over 300 schools on Tuesday, September 29 and over 500 schools on Friday, October 2. High schools and university students nationwide are protesting deteriorating school conditions and budget cuts, and fighting back against heavy police repression since the beginning of the movement. Since then, students have taken to the streets alongside teachers, firefighters, healthcare workers, and other public-sector workers to challenge the austerity of the Macron government.
