He may have a point: Whether battling climate change or racial profiling by police, activists and ordinary citizens are pursuing groundbreaking legal action to force his government into action.

When France’s government hosted a roundtable on relations between the police and the public earlier this month, part of consultations aimed at bolstering confidence in law enforcement, the panel invited to the interior ministry in Paris raised more than a few eyebrows.

Racial profiling by French police challenged in class action suit

PARIS - Three leading rights organizations joined with grassroots groups Wednesday to launch France's first class action suit targeting the country's massive police machine, contending that it lawfully propagates a culture leading to systemic discrimination in identity checks.
The NGOs, including Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International and Open Society Justice Initiative, allege that police target Black people and people of Arab descent in choosing who to stop and check and say the practice is alienating those populations and a danger to society.
The issue of racial profiling has festered for years. Now, the organizations want deep law enforcement reforms, including a change in the article in the penal code that governs checks and currently gives police carte blanche with no trace of the encounter. They seek no monetary damages.
