Description
Additional poster text: Le project de loi Hortefeux sur l'immigration restreint encore le regroupement familial en instaurant des conditions particulièrement discriminatoires. Les étrangèrEs atteintEs de pathologies graves comme le sida n'ont plus qu'une alternative : être condamnéEs á rester seulEs en France pour se soigner ou mourir auprès de leurs proches dans leur pays d'origine, faute de traitements disponibles.
Poster depicts a naked woman from the waist up, with her arms crossed over her chest (partially hiding her breasts). Her posture suggests hopelessness. Poster also has information on the Hortefeux law in France which affects immigrants.
Translated poster text: The project of the Hortefeux immigration law further restricts the family by creating particularly discriminatory conditions. Foreign women suffering from serious diseases like AIDS have only one alternative: to be doomed to remain alone in France to heal or die with their relatives in their country of origin, lacking of available treatments.
Poster held by Louise M. Darling Biomedical Library. History & Special Collections, Collection no. 306, item FR269.
