Well wishers across France have rallied to support a 60-year-old black woman of Cameroonian origin who has been targeted with racist abuse in the French capital of Paris where she runs a bakery.

Known affectionately as "Madame Pauline" she now has dozens of people at the door of her bakery in one of the capital's suburbs, and has been given thousands of euros in donations since news of the racist insults she's been receiving were publicised.

The Black African Defense League in France has highlighted her story and the intimidation she's faced.

Pauline told her story to the BBC's Newsday programme.
