A dozen deputies from La France Insoumise (LFI) attended a banned memorial rally for Adama Traoré in Paris, defying the police's decision. The rally was organized to mark seven years since Traoré's death in 2016 after being stopped by the police. LFI leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon accused President Macron of leading France into a regime déjà vu. The government spokesman criticized LFI for planning demonstrations in major cities that have not yet recovered from recent riots. Around thirty other demonstrations against police violence are being organized in France.
