Sohane's Monument in Cite Balzac

This is a monument to the young girl, Sohane, who was burned alive behind some dumpsters in a ghettoized suburban housing project near Paris called Cite Balzac in Vitry sur Seine. This act instigated the entire Ni Putes Ni Soumises movement. As a ferocious response to this horrific act of violence, Fadela Amara and a handful of young men and women began a march across France that culminated in a 30,000 person strong march in Paris in front of Parliament to demand change. Sohane's all too short life was not lived in vain. She will live forever in the work of NPNS. We love you and miss you, Sohane!
