Paris, January 27 (RHC)-- In France, Justice Minister Christiane Taubira has resigned in protest over plans to strip people convicted of terrorism of their citizenship.

The steps, set to go before Parliament, were proposed in the wake of the November 13 attacks in Paris that killed 130 people.

Taubira, one of France’s few top Black politicians, tweeted: "Sometimes staying on is resisting, sometimes resisting means leaving."
