July 31 st, 100 years ago Jean Jaures was shot

We hear so much about Jean Jaurès this year here in France , we had to explain who he was to our English children. This date 100 years ago he was shot by Raoul Villain.
Le 31 juillet, Jean Jaurès tombait sous les balles de Raoul Villain. 100 ans après, jour pour jour, la France rend un hommage solennel et unanime à la grande voix humaniste qui porte toujours le message de paix et de justice.
