While France continues reaffirm his Republican credo that there can be no racial distinction, up to banish the word race of legislation, how to understand this emergence of the matter in the political and media rhetoric? On PS Manual Valls once tried to put the image whites, some white, some blancos ... in his beautiful city of Evry; on behalf of the UMP, Jean-Francois Cope is he went to war against the anti-white racism, while the publisher and polemicist Richard Millet is not afraid to say that through the Châtelet-Les Halles 6 pm is an absolute nightmare [...] especially when I am the only person. The debate on visible minorities pregnant last twenty years, and has moved to a questioning of the invisible majority. But what does being white? A color?
