On March 13th we were on the ground in Bastia, #Corsica, to document the violent youth protests against the French state. These historic clashes have gone largely under-reported. Corsica is under the control of #France, but many on the idyllic island want to be independent, or at least have better autonomy. A Corsican prisoner, Yvan Colonna, was recently attacked in a French prison. This sparked the ongoing youth revolt.
Yesterday, Colonna died from his injuries. This will likely cause a new wave of violence in Corsica.
