Het verhaal van een zwarte vrouw in Marokko van de jaren 1930 opnieuw verteld in dit essai verschenen in tijdschrift Souffles Monde (https://www.soufflesmonde.com/), een tijdschrift verschenen in Marokko tussen 1966 en 1973 en nu weer online beschikbaar:
"Khnata, my grandmother, migrated from Tafilelt, in the Southeast of Morocco to the Northern city of Fes, where I lived in her company for the first years of my childhood; a presence I lost when I was ten years old. Tafileft, where she was born on an unknown date, was one of the first and last bastions of Moroccan resistance to the French armed conquest, which started at the beginning of the twentieth century and ended by the mid of 1930s. By 1934 most parts of this vast oasis fell to the stronghold of the French artillery, otherwise named, the ‘pacification campaign.’
