Why bouna Is Trending Today?

Bouna, a 14-year-old boy, was found dead in his home in Brooklyn. The New York Police Department is investigating the incident as a homicide. Bouna's family is seeking answers and justice.

Twenty years ago today, the deaths of Zyed and Bouna in Clichy-sous-Bois sparked riots in the suburbs, with the anniversary marking two decades since the tragic event. Despite the passage of time, journalist Nora Hamadi laments that nothing has changed, describing it as a "stutter in history." The mayor of Clichy-sous-Bois, Olivier Klein, echoes this sentiment, stating that the two adolescents died for nothing. Sarah Ichou, director of the Bondy Blog, agrees, asserting that the issue has not been taken seriously. An "arbre de la résilience" was planted in their memory, symbolizing hope and healing. However, the brother of Bouna, while feeling more at peace, remains concerned about the future of the youth in his community. The podcast "20 ans après Zyed et Bouna" discusses the unfulfilled promises and the ongoing impact of their deaths.
