Overseas Athletes Unite Against High Cost of Living in France

This weekend, overseas athletes in Paris rallied against the high cost of living affecting their communities. Thousands, clad in red, marched from Denfert-Rochereau to the Ministry of Overseas Territories, echoing solidarity with those in the French overseas territories. Pioneered by former athletes like Maguy Nestoret Ontanon, Lilian Thuram, and Marie-José Perec, a collective message was spread on social media to raise awareness. The athletes emphasized that all children, regardless of their background, should have equal rights, and called for joint efforts to support their communities in addressing economic hardships. The Minister of Overseas Territories is scheduled to visit Martinique for discussions on the issue.
