Lycée Nelson Mandela

Okay, but are school conditions poor across France? Well, that's actually not obvious.

If you go to my written piece, or you can just Google it, Check out a picture of the Lycée Nelson Mandela in Nantes.

It was built in just 2014 with an estimated price tag of 80 million euros.

It was an eco-friendly construction with bio-sourced insulation, pricey light wood paneling, a solar array to make it energy positive.

Dominance behavior.

En av skolorna som förstörts är Nelson Mandela gymnasiet i Nant.

Glastak, ljus trä, en hall på 26 000 kvadratmeter, en skihus, ett internat med 166 bäddar, rum med badrum, studierum, innegård, två idrottshallar och en klättervägg med 24 leder.

Internationella sektioner, BTS-utbildningar, förberedande klasser.

Bilderna på gymnasiet innan angreppet tyder inte direkt på misär.

Nelson Mandela Gymnasiet kostade staten mellan 52 och 64 miljoner euro, över en halv miljard svenska kronor.

Och det här skrytbygget, den här skolan, tänder de alltså eld på i resursbristens namn.

Nu ser skolan ut så här.

The entire entrance hall goes up in flames.

Nelson Mandela High School in Nantes is burning, targeted by arson right before the eyes of stunned students.

Right when the fire first broke out, there were still people inside and right outside the door.

So when we found ourselves facing the flames, watching that huge blaze take off, we were honestly terrified for the people who were still inside.

Los dos incendios de Nantes se propagaron después de que los manifestantes prendieran fuego a contenedores de basura.

El incendio del instituto Nelson Mandela, situado en el centro de la ciudad, se extendió hasta la fachada del edificio y dañó el vestíbulo de entrada.

En la ciudad sureña de Marsella, el personal del instituto Victor Hugo fue rociado con gasolina mientras los manifestantes llenaban diversos recipientes con combustible.

In the southern city of Marseille, staff at the Victor Hugo High School were doused with gasoline while demonstrators filled various containers with fuel.
