 I have not noticed more trash in La Goutte d'Or than elsewhere.

• "With the marabouts of Barbès" 

• Barbès, lost girls' city, podcast and written summary (in French)

• Streetpress, an Internet monthly

"In the documentary series Rixes, Adama Camara, a militant, rapper and former prisoner, meets youth and families whose lives have been overturned by gang warfare. Find six episodes here."

"We need to hear forgotten voices to fight against the incomprehension and caricature of our lives."
