France's far-right politicians remain largely absent from annual slavery commemoration ceremonies despite a 25-year-old law mandating them, with party members often redirecting focus to the Arab-Muslim slave trade rather than France's colonial role.
Slavery abolition commemorations remain source of discomfort for France's far right
Despite a 25-year-old law instituting annual commemorations of the history of slavery, far-right MPs are rarely present at these ceremonies. While Marine Le Pen now acknowledges France's responsibility for slavery, members of her party often prefers to emphasize the scale of the Arab-Muslim slave trade.
