Actor Samuel L. Jackson preaches hope in Paris suburbs

http://rawstory.com/news/afp/Actor_Samuel_L_Jackson_preaches_hop_04132010.html

US film star Samuel L. Jackson met young people in a poor Paris suburb Tuesday, spotlighting deprived areas that France's mainstream cinema is accused, like its politicians, of neglecting.

Jackson broke off his holidays to visit Bondy, an eastern suburb that was among many largely immigrant districts hit in 2005 by a violent wave of protests sparked by tensions between police and youths.
