Amnesty International has urged French lawmakers to reject a proposed bill that would ban headscarves in sporting competitions.
The bill, supported by right-wing senators, is set for debate in the French parliament’s upper house this week. It aims to prohibit all “ostensibly religious” clothing and symbols during competitive events.
Amnesty International has condemned the proposed legislation as discriminatory, arguing that it infringes upon religious freedom. The vote is expected to reignite the ongoing debate surrounding secularism in France, a principle enshrined in the 1905 law separating church and state.
The French capital wanted to get rid of the church, thus secularism became the state form.
France has however never adhered to its fake standard of equality. That is a hypocritic ploy which was used in favor of white people only.
There are so many examples of France selectively applying their rules to discriminate against groups they are oppressing that the excuse of “equality” really does not fly. And of course the standard for “equality” is whatever the French government decided. French.
