Demonstrators hold a large banner reading ''solidarity is not a crime'' as others raise placards featuring a portrait of Saadia Moasbah reading ''no to the criminalization of civil work'' during a rally that brings together relatives, human rights organizations, and civil society groups outside the Court of First Instance in Tunis, Tunisia, on December 22, 2025, in solidarity with the detained anti-racism activist Saadia Mosbah as she appears before the court for her first hearing. Saadia is the head of the anti-racism NGO M'nemty. She is a prominent Black Tunisian activist and a pioneer in the fight against racism in Tunisia. She faces charges over allegations of facilitating the illegal entry and stay of migrants, money laundering, and financial misconduct. She is placed under formal detention in the women's prison by an investigative judge on May 16, 2024. Saadia and her organization consistently advocate for the rights of Black migrants, particularly in the aftermath of Tunisian President Kais Saied's anti-sub-Saharan migrant statement on February 21, 2023, and the wave of anti-Black violence it provokes. Human rights groups like Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch describe these charges as ''unfounded'' and part of a broader crackdown on civil society. They call for her release.
