Since more than a week, high school students across France have been organizing blockades and demonstrations to demand better resources for schools, teacher replacements, and improved study conditions. While the most visible images of these movements are the violent confrontations, other videos and photos show a different side of the blockades and demonstrations, including aura battles, solidarity between generations, and support from firefighters or elderly people. These moments highlight the human connections and shared struggles that underpin the protests. On Tuesday, October 6, a police officer joined high school students in Mâcon, Saône-et-Loire, to participate in an aura battle. The man, who had a white beard, had fun trying the aura battle, surrounded by young high school students, all holding their phones and cheering to applaud the performance. Since the beginning of the student mobilizations, students often organize these charisma duels, using gestures from internet culture, on the sidelines of the demonstrations. These battles, while playful, reflect the students' creativity and their ability to find moments of connection even in tense situations. In a video titled What the media will never show, BlocusAndré films a group of young people helping an elderly person, using a cane, to safely cross a pedestrian crossing in Niort. Marie, a grandmother, is also applauded on the sidelines of the blockades in Versailles. Young people also come to help a woman caught in the middle of tear gas in Paris. Among all these videos, one is particularly touching: an elderly woman, surrounded by a group of young people, crying, smiling, who takes the high school students into her arms to give them a big hug. These moments of intergenerational support have become a powerful part of the demonstrations. In Aix-en-Provence, a grandfather in a red medical scooter makes his way with the demonstrators, supporting the young people of the city, who are all happy to run behind him. In Paris, an elderly couple also helped the demonstrators during the large mobilization on Tuesday by filling the water bottles of the high school students blocked in a street by the police. Under the applause of the participants, the two Parisians launched the filled bottles from the first floor of their apartment. These small acts of solidarity have become a symbol of unity among different age groups. Young people and firefighters have also shown mutual support. In a video titled What the media does not show, Nana. en.secret shows an honor guard and the applause of the young people upon the arrival of the firefighters during the blockade of a high school in Gradignan. The same honor guard was seen in Montpellier or Pau. The firefighters, who also demonstrated last week to demand more resources after the summer of fires, have also provided their support to the high school students. In Rennes, on Tuesday, in a video by Actu, a firefighter in his truck said: "Courage, young people, we are with you" under the applause of the crowd. This support from firefighters highlights the shared concerns of different groups in society.
