Dear friends

Allow me to join you in saluting the memory of that equanimous, ironic and fraternal man who was Léo Matarasso. His serenity, his calmness and his resolution were a real refuge for a number of beleaguered militants, including myself. It is today more than ever, under the reign of the ego and a religion of individual rights that tends to forget history and the collective, that we need to defend the rights of peoples.

The memory of the anti-colonialist militant that Leo was will help us to do this. Thank you for your loyalty
