La Rumeur has involved itself in political activism in the suburbs of France , calling for attention to be paid to the often-ignored Paris massacre of 1961 , as well as to police abuse , including " accidental " killings of young French people . The band is critical of reformist NGOs such as SOS Racisme , and initially expressed political views through the magazines that came with their records , which are now in the form of webzines . Hamé wrote : " ... through organizations such as SOS Racisme , created by the PS to contribute to the destruction of the Marche des beurs radicalism ; ' Equal rights ' has become ' Equal chances to be admitted into nightclubs ' . Justice for those assassinated by the police is overshadowed by massive slogans such as " Hands off my pal ! " and " Long live miscegenation ! " , etc. ... La Rumeur is closer to NGOs such as the MIB ( Mouvement Immigration Banlieue )
