00:00This video is for all those people who say "I can't see colors".
00:04Can one be judged on the color of their skin in a country that claims not to recognize races?
00:09?
00:09And far too black to be French, the title of this documentary attempts to answer this question.
00:14And this is a video for my week of the International Day Against Racism.
00:18Filmmaker Isabelle Bonny-Clavery investigates racial discrimination in France.
00:23She collects testimonies from Black people who recount their experiences in daily life.
00:27at school, in the media, or during job interviews.
00:30The film also reveals a French paradox.
00:33Unlike some countries, France refuses to produce official statistics based on ethnic origin.
00:38This approach is linked to the republican idea of equality between all citizens.
00:42But some researchers believe that this can also make discrimination more difficult to measure.
00:47To understand these debates, one can read "Races and Social Sciences" by sociologist Stéphane Beau.
00:52This book analyzes how the social sciences today study issues of race, identity, and discrimination.
00:58The documentary says that racism is not limited to violent acts.
01:01It appears in stereotypes, representations, or inequalities in access to opportunities.
01:06Let me know in the comments if you've seen this documentary.
01:08And most importantly, subscribe.
