France: The street is the real Parliament
Season 2 | Episode 77
18m | Oct 21, 2026Why are hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets of France? And why does the protest reveal far more than anger about prices or politics?
In this episode of Unusual Practice, we go beyond viral clips, claims of an “immigration crisis” and the easy search for a villain to explore why France’s streets may function as its real parliament.
From the October 17 anniversary of the 1961 Paris massacre of Algerian demonstrators to youth protests over failing schools, political distrust, colonial memory, social media misinformation and the cost-of-living crisis, this is a compelling guide to what is really happening in France, and how to think more clearly when the internet wants you to react before you even understand!
