Everyone remembers the scandalous smear campaign conducted by the UMP during the regional elections in Ile de France against Ali Soumaré, a socialist candidate living in Villiers Le Bel and also a popular education activist.
No one could forget the comments made against him, a young black candidate from a sensitive urban area and, by default, guilty. Comments unanimously condemned by the political class except for a few UMP bigwigs who do not forgive politicians for not fitting into the so-called representative French norm, namely Male, White, with a “regional” name, over 45 years old.
Ali Soumaré has written a book “Casier Politique” to explain his commitments, his battles, his disappointments, his drive to win, and his exemplary political journey that resonates with many of our fellow citizens.
He will be in Vallauris on Wednesday, March 9 from 3 PM to 4 PM with Eymeric Lavitolla, the socialist candidate for the cantonal elections, and then he will be signing his book at the Masséna bookstore at 55 Giroffredo Street from 5 PM to 7 PM.
Finally, the Federation of the Socialist Party, 9 Biscarra Street, in Nice will host a debate in his presence starting at 7:30 PM on “the rise of the National Front,” a topic that is highly relevant.
