  “Inflection Point”: Uprising over French Teen’s Killing in Traffic Stop & Pattern of Racist Policing
  
  In France, more than 3,000 people have been arrested after a week of nationwide protests following the police killing of Nahel Merzouk, a teenager of North African descent, captured on video. Nahel’s family and friends held his funeral Saturday at a mosque in Nanterre.
