00:00 Thursday, the National Assembly voted in the first reading a bill aiming to sanction

00:04 hair discrimination, especially in the professional environment, although reservations were issued

00:10 on the usefulness of this initiative.

00:11 The text of the Gadloupian deputy Olivier Servat, Independent Group in Lyo, was adopted

00:17 by 44 votes against 2, before being transmitted to the Senate where its future is uncertain.

00:21 They aim in particular to prevent employers from forcing their employees to straighten

00:26 their hair to hide their afro haircuts or to hide their dreadlocks and dreadlocks.

00:30 In France, discrimination based on physical appearance is already punishable in theory,

00:35 said Deputy Servat.

00:37 But from theory to reality there is a gap, he said, pleading to clarify a

00:43 misunderstood or misunderstood law.

00:44 Olivier Servat mentioned black women who feel obliged to straighten their hair before

00:49 an employment interview, Russian people, victims of many negative prejudices, or

00:54 bald men.

00:56 The government has taken a benevolent look at the text, without giving up the wisdom

01:00 of the deputies.

01:01 It has the merit of highlighting this type of discrimination, even if the law already allows

01:06 to fight against it, the Minister for Equality Femme Homme Aurore Berger said.

01:10 "Black woman from the Republic of Guinea, I am here with my braids, my wigs,"

01:16 said Deputy Macronist Fanta Berette.

01:19 "When I applied for certain jobs, I was told that I had to straighten my hair,

01:24 "she testified.

01:25 The text is inspired by legislation in force in several states of the United States, including

01:30 the E.C.R.O.N. Act promulgated in 2019 in California against hair discrimination.

01:35 The left supported this text.

01:38 "It is a real, serious and political problem, which mainly affects women and

01:43 racialized people," said Daniel O'Bonno, denouncing everything as the ecologist Sabrina

01:48 Sbeyin "systemic racism."

01:49 This last term irked the right.

01:53 In the tumult, the LR Xavier Breton denounced a militant ideology, "hyperboles that

01:58 only aim to fracture our society.

02:00 He fought the law proposal, the right to speak, a flight forward towards a list of

02:06 discrimination at the risk of establishing a hierarchy.

02:08 On the far right, the RN Philippe Shrek called not to mock or rile this law proposal,

02:14 but wondered.

02:15 Are we dealing with the daily problems of the French in a country almost bankrupt?

02:20 It would be good to quickly move on to something else, he claimed.
