Je copie-colle que les passages qui concerne Lolita Séchan et son père Renaud. En gras le passage concernant Renaud
The scars of the Charlie Hebdo attacks endure one year on

The attack on the French satirical magazine changed Paris forever

The Charlie Hebdo attacks have changed Paris. They were a deliberate attack on free speech, and beyond their targets they have silenced some voices and changed the tone of others.

After an initial "Je suis Charlie" act of bravado, beyond the defiance, the solidarité and the singing, came the fear.

"The fear started with Charlie," says Lolita Séchan. "I think before that we were unconscious."

Séchan, 35, an illustrator and writer of graphic novels, won't catch the Metro any more.

"The fear never stops – everybody says 'no fear, no fear' but I think that is ​naive. You have to live with fear. There is no day goes by we don't hear about a terrorist attack." (Her words are prophetic. Almost as she says them, in the next suburb, a man walks up to a police station with a fake explosive device and a printed ISIS flag, waving a knife. He is shot dead.)

Looking back a year to the Charlie Hebdo atrocity, Séchan remembers her parents in tears over the loss of their friends at the magazine, she remembers trying to explain it all to her three year-old daughter.

And then a few days later she remembers standing in the midst of a million people marching through Paris, singing the Marseillaise for the first time in her life – an anthem she had previously avoided as a bloody, politically incorrect historical relic.

And, even more remarkably, her father, French folk rock icon Renaud, the anti-authoritarian left-wing pacifist, kissed a cop.

In a ​cafe in the city's north, sipping an orange juice, Séchan thinks back a year to when she was on her way to work at a studio she shared with other illustrators – just a few hundred metres from Charlie Hebdo.

She heard the news on the radio, arrived at work and asked her colleagues if it was true. They were just silent, she says.

"We lost [Charlie Hebdo's] Honoré, we lost Charb, Wolinski. They were a little bit older than us, the people we admired when we grew up," she says. "It felt like it was [an attack on] us. Just because we were doing drawings."

Charlie had been part of her life, growing up. "Charlie was a friend in my house, near the bed, in the living room and toilet – there was Charlie everywhere.

"I cried so much, and now I have forbidden myself to cry again."

Instead, she wants to turn her fear and sadness into something new.

"I feel useless now," says Séchan. "I am not satisfied with just drawing any more. I have spent the year thinking about how I can do different things, perhaps give lessons in schools for disadvantaged children, perhaps convince people to vote.

"I think everything changed and we need to change … I cannot accept to live with fear and not to change everything in my life. So I will try to find something"

Her father, Renaud, had invested in Charlie Hebdo in 1992 to bring it back from the brink of closing, and wrote a column for a few years. He counted some of its people his close friends. Just two weeks before the attack he had had lunch with Charlie cartoonist Charb.

But, says Séchan, he found new strength through his loss.

"[At the big rally after Charlie Hebdo] my dad who was a big anarchist – he kissed a cop. It's famous to hate cops. [The attacks] changed us. It doesn't mean we love all the policemen … but it means it's less Manichean, less black and white. We changed. And that's perhaps a good thing."

Her father has been shocked out of a long melancholy and is even making a new record. "He is living again, he rediscovers life. I think he feels the same as I do, you cannot stay useless."

One song is about Charlie Hebdo, another about the Hypercacher supermarket, another is called "I kissed a cop".
Je vous laisse traduire :p

On y apprend concernant Renaud, qu'il a bouffé 15 jours avant les attentats de Charlie avec Charb, qu'il revit maintenant en réaction à cette "perte", et qu'il refait un disque.

Une chanson sur Charlie Hebdo
Une autre sur le magasin Hypercacher
Une autre appelé "J'ai embrassé un flic".

Voili voilou !
Banalyse :)
