Génération Kémi Séba
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Génération Kémi Séba (GKS), previously known as Tribu Ka, is a militant, anti-Zionist, pan-African, and black separatist organisation in France. It was founded by Stellio Gilles Robert Capochichi ("Kemi Seba") in Paris in 2004.[1][2][3] The French government banned the organization in July 2006 but it re-formed under a different name.

[edit] May 2006 demonstration
In May 2006 demonstration 40 Tribu Ka members went through a Jewish neighborhood carrying baseball bats. Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy dissolved Tribu Ka on July 26, 2006 but it reformed under the name Generation Kemi Seba.[1][2][3]
Sarkozy sent a letter to Justice Minister Pascal Clement saying Tribu Ka could be indicted for racist incitement. Sarkozy also said, "The public prosecution opened two investigations following the incident. The group could be targeted as a whole and its members indicted separately." On Tribu Ka's now defunct website, www.tribuka.com, the organization posted, "We will search for you (member of the Jewish Defense League) anywhere, multiplying, for as long as it takes, our patrols." SOS Racism and the French Union of Jewish Students called for Tribu Ka to be dissolved and Clement opened an investigation.[2]
[edit] Capochichi arrest
French police arrested Capochichi in September 2006 for allegedly anti-semitic posts on his website, and again in February 2007 after he called a public official "Zionist scum." After the initial court hearing in 2006, supporters chanted, "The judge is a Zionist, the client is a Zionist, the decision will be Zionist." A French court near Paris sentenced Chichi, who describes himself as a "militant defender of the dignity of French citizens," to five months imprisonment for criminal contempt of the law in February 2007.[1][4]
