"Born in France of Algerian parents, Fadela Amara is a human rights activist who speaks with both a personal and a collective voice. This book is a passionate account of her struggle to found the movement called "Ni Putes Ni Soumises" (Neither Whore Nor Submissive), aimed at shattering the law of silence about violence against women within French suburban communities. The questions Amara raises are part of a broader agenda to open contemporary French society to greater ethnic and cultural diversity. These issues also pose problems of national identity and the defense of secularism for the state. As France increasingly confronts such tensions and the emergence of Islamic movements, French cities face problems of unemployment, racial and ethnic discrimination, and violence. Amara's eloquent call for social and gender equality underscores a host of interconnected issues, including France's colonial past and the degradation of the suburbs into ghettos that have progressively marginalized immigrant and working-class communities. Amara and her co-workers have challenged the French Republic's leaders using a strategy that champions republican secular values and stresses the language of universalism to advance individual rights. Women's rights are human rights, they argue, thus casting their demands for equality in terms of a broader struggle for democratic freedoms. Moving, candid, and timely, Breaking the Silence created a sensation when it was published in France. Fadela Amara is currently State Minister for Urban Affairs, charged with the rehabilitation of the very ghettos she describes."--Publisher's description.

Le fondateur du Nouvel Observateur analyse depuis touhours les subtils méandres de l'identité nationale, à l'aune de l'expérience algérienne et d'une connaissance intime du monde. Pur produit de l'intégration mais membre d'un gouvernement qui compte "un ministère de l'immigration et ... de l'identité nationale", Fadela Amara lui donne une réplique amicale et chaleureuse.

"Ni putes ni soumises" : ce sont avec ces mots qu'une poignée de femmes de banlieue lance, en janvier 2002, un appel dénonçant les dérives dans les cités et les violences faites aux femmes. En 2003, elles entament "la marche des femmes contre les ghettos et pour l'égalité" qui traverse vingt-trois villes. Ce film revient sur le chemin parcouru. Les témoignages de Fadela Amara, initiatrice de NPS, et de militants, exposent la philosophie et le combat du mouvement autour de trois valeurs : mixité, égalité, lai͏̈cité. Les séances de débat, organisés partout en France, permettent également de se rendre compte des passions que soulèvent certains sujets, comme le port du voile.
