France has turned political protest into an art form. Whether it\u2019s the cost of living, pension reforms or the rise of the far right, there aren’t many nations that exhibit such dedication to dissent.<\/p>\n
What makes France\u2019s protest culture so unique though is the love of literature on display on the streets. Puns and poetry used to make a political point.<\/p>\n
One French demonstrator whose commitment sets him apart is retired school teacher Jean-Baptiste Redd\u00e9, also known as Voltuan, whose activism is making waves across domestic and international media.<\/p>\n
