Unas 800.000 personas salieron a las calles de Francia este fin de semana para protestar contra el alto costo de vida y los recortes presupuestarios, en medio de las movilizaciones estudiantiles que desde hace un mes denuncian el deterioro de la educación pública.

As riot police encircled Place de la République last week, lobbing teargas canisters to disperse demonstrators, the conductor Étienne Jarrier and his orchestra played on. They kept playing even after everyone else had disappeared and teargas was being fired into the central Paris square.
