Children in demonstrations during the Occupation
Housewives' demonstrations were female protests born under the Occupation in France to fight against supply shortages. These processions mainly gathered women from the working classes in order to ensure more effective mobilization. The participants often brought their offspring with them, as seen in the gathering in La Ciotat on 12 November 1941 which counted 300 women for 100 children.
