Schoolchildren observe a minute of silence for slain history teacher Samuel Paty, Monday November 2, 2020 in Strasbourg, eastern France. French schools reopened for the first time since the beheading of a teacher who opened a class debate on free speech by showing students caricatures of the prophet of Islam, in mourning and under tight security for a national homage. At schools throughout the country, students will read the letter of Jean Jaurès, a 19th century French thinker and politician, to instructors urging them to teach the country's children to “know France, its geography and its history, its body and its soul”.
