But the pieds noirs remained committed to a discriminatory and even punitive system which insured their supremacy, included the transfer of vast amounts of Muslim land to their proprietorship, and reinforced their ingrained belief that Muslims should never be seen as real candidates for equality within France.
Table 1 shows the distribution of parental ethnic exogamy for various cohorts of second-generation individuals.4 The distributions are presented separately for the children of pieds noirs and those of Maghrebin immigrants, but the total numbers, presented in the table, allow one to follow the changes in the relative sizes of these two populations.
Decade after decade the influence of the "colons" and the " pieds noirs" prevented adoption of reforms that metropolitan and military elites repeatedly offered to integrate the Muslim majority into France in a manner parallel to the legal formulations that had incorporated the territory of Algeria had as a province or "departments" of the country.

 Algerian-War-of-Independence.htm
He identified with pied-noirs, and defended the French government on the grounds that revolt of its North African colony was really an integral part of the 'new Arab imperialism' led by Egypt and an 'anti-Western' offensive orchestrated by Russia to 'encircle Europe' and 'isolate the United States' (Actuelles III: Chroniques Algeriennes, 1939-1958).
Although favouring greater Algerian autonomy or even federation, though not full-scale independence, he believed that the pied-noirs and Arabs could co-exist.

 Louis Althusser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Althusser was born in French Algeria in the town of Birmendreïs, to a pied-noirs family.
Although Althusser's theories were born of an attempt to defend Communist orthodoxy, his endeavour to present Marxism as a form of structuralism reflected a move away from the intellectual isolation of the Stalinist era, and furthermore was symptomatic of a push towards emphasising Marx's place as a philosopher rather than as an economist.
Althusser offers the example of the Voice of God- an embodiment of Christian religious ideology- instructing a person on what her place in the world is and what she must do to be reconciled with Christ.

 History of the Jews in Algeria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
These Jews themselves represented the remainder of only about 10,000 who had chosen to stay there in 1962; most of Algeria's 140,000 Jews, having been granted French citizenship in 1870, left the country for France when it attained independence, together with the pied-noirs.
Jews have been present in Algeria at least since late Roman times; the early Arab chroniclers suggest that at least some Berber tribes were converted to Judaism before Islam 's arrival, notably that of Queen Kahina.
The native Algerian Jew wears a "ṭarbush" or oblong turban with silken tassel, a "ṣadriyyah" or vest with large sleeves, and "sarwal" or pantaloons fastened by a "ḥizam" (girdle), all being covered by a mantle, a burnus, and a large silk handkerchief, the tassels of which hang down to his feet.
