Tens of young people from different backgrounds, including Moroccans, were involved in a series of riots in the Netherlands last week. The riots are believed to be triggered by feelings of exclusion and tenacious stereotypes.
Through a company called Hassan Ben Ali Arabs Co., a number of Moroccan entertainers left for the United States to perform in Broadway. They acted, danced and performed acrobatic feats in New York in several plays and shows during the beginning of the 20th century.
37% of Moroccans disapproved of the leadership of the US in 2019, according to a Gallup survey. Only 22% of Moroccans who responded to the poll said that they approve of this leadership.
On Monday, Moroccans living in the UK and others stranded there for months observed a sit-in before the Moroccan consulate to protest against the high prices of Covid-19 tests required to enter Morocco and the flight tickets.
Moroccan nationals, residents and students planning to travel to Morocco have been struggling to afford Covid-19 testing in the UK. Forced to undergo a PCR and antibody tests before boarding, these travelers may be forced to pay up to £ 300 each before entering Morocco.
