Undercover with white supremacists
Al Jazeera investigated a far-right group in France for a year, exposing violence, racism and surprising ties to a mainstream political party.
In a two-part investigation, Al Jazeera’s Investigative Unit went undercover to expose France‘s far right and revealed secret links between violent activists and one of the country’s biggest political parties.
In this week’s episode of The Take, we revisit Imtiaz Tyab’s conversation with journalist David Harrison about the investigation, which prompted a police probe and arrests.
