By @edkashi @viiphoto "After being checked for the first time, I told myself, 'Well the police, or most policemen, are racist,' so now I do not trust police. I always have the fear of being arrested, being checked, whereas before I didn’t have that feeling...Now when I walk by a police officer, I instantly feel guilty as if I have done something." - Mounir Seydi, business school student, Lille, France. Police #profiling in France, impacts immigrants and minorities who must contend with the stigma, legal pressures and exclusion from society these practices can cause. @opensocietyfoundations presents an exhibition of this work by @edkashi on view at la place de la République in #Paris June 6 – July 12. #egalitetrahie, #quoimagueule @thephotosociety
