"parlement debout"

My comment:

Good morning Jennifer: The "parlement debout", literally, the standing parliament, is a uniquely Congolese institution, where people who can read read the newspapers aloud to those who can’t, a forum which transformed itself into a political movement. I think you should keep it in French, in quotes, as there is no equivalent in the English speaking world.

The asker's comment:

.....and a very good afternoon to you, Claude! Thanks very much for that - I found the actual meaning on the web, but no English equivalent, so I'll take your advice on that. Thanks again.
