image captionProtest at Sciences Po Strasbourg: The slogans read: We believe you and Silent institution = complicit institution
Anna Toumazoff chose a powerful hashtag to highlight sexual abuse at France s top political science college. Sciences Po - the training ground for the country s presidents, politicians and administrators - became #SciencesPorcs (Science Pigs). This story is very French, Anna told me. Because it s about great schools; it s about rape culture; it s about the elegance of being silent - that s very French.
Since then, the social media activist has received more than 400 messages from current and former students of Sciences Po. They describe sexual assaults and rapes, mostly by fellow students, that they say were not taken seriously by the college.
