FEATURING EROS SANA – Mass protests in dozens of cities across Europe are in their second week. The actions, which were labeled Nuit Debout, or “Up All Night,” began in Paris where activists have set up an encampment in the Place de la Republique and held all-night vigils. They began as protests against proposed labor reforms by French President Francois Hollande but have now become a generalized pro-democracy movement. The protests have spread to England, Belgium, Germany, and Spain.
