Added: Nov 2, 2007 From:journeymanpictures Duration: 34:11 Nov 1997 For centuries the Berbers of Morocco have been persecuted by their Arab masters. Today even their festivals have been hijacked. Miriam is fighting to keep her language and culture, whilst fellow militant Zaid claims the Arabs have 'stolen our history.' Etched out of a beautiful, yet inhospitable and rugged land, stands Imichil, where the annual marriage market or Moussem des Fiances takes Place. It's here that the Arab government has turned an exclusive Berber celebration into a tourist fest. Shy young brides wander around the market in traditional veils as streetwise city slickers sell trinkets and souvenirs to dollar laden foreigners. The Arabs have encouraged the press to come and soak up the traditional atmosphere It's turned into objects of curiosity in the process. Hussein and his wife to be, were forced to attend the festival in order to obtain a marriage certificate. Fascinating look at a culture being silenced and yet exploited for its rich and colourful traditions. Channel: News Tags: arabs berbers culture history journeyman language morocco pictures |

Nov 9, 2008 - I'm Arab, and who exactly do you think you are JUSIKTE07 to say which culture is right and which is wrong? Who is anybody for that matter to dictate to others on what they see as right or wrong?

Nov 10, 2008 - I see a lot of Ignorant comments and race baiting. I am libyan I say I am arab, I never see a single berber ever mention there are three classes Arab,Berber and the Maures the Maures are a berber word for mixed group, I believe the arab is a minority as are the berber in the maghreb. Why do you excel so much in speaking french even to the detriment of your own language??? The future belongs to those who can make agreements for peace with one another as long as you despise the arab and maur
louistheimpotant Says:
Nov 10, 2008 - also, the Berber Language and Arabic both came from africa, it is possible the two are not brothers or father son but cousins, the berber are not from middle east, we are from africa.
manutdforevar Says:
Nov 12, 2008 - louistheimportant are you aware about what you are saying? the arabic language come from africa? the berber people were the first to live in northen africa and in morocco as well before the arabs come from the saudi arabia desert! arabic language come from saudi arabia in the middle east and not from africa as you said! old berber people had a great culture and a great honor and god bless them and we will never forget our heritage as a new generation of berbers!long live to our heritage!
jusitke07 Says:
Nov 14, 2008 - You know what esuroi? YOU ARE RIGHT! So please carry with whatever it is you Berbers & Arabs are doing. Us Americans should really mind our business and just carry on with life in the U.S.A.

Nov 14, 2008 - what are they actually doing? please don't mock me, i want to know. i'm studying Morocco and the Berbers for a school project.
jusitke07 Says:
Nov 15, 2008 - Well look at it, and pay attention to what the narrator is saying. Basically the Berbers are telling their side of the stories of the bigotry, and abuse of their Arab masters.
louistheimpotant Says:
Nov 15, 2008 - Yes I am well aware of what I am saying, are you? Before saudi or yemen where did the arabic people originate from? Before you were amazaigh were you the gauche, or gaurumentes or even the canine islanders? Arabic,Berber,Chadic and Tigare of Ethiopia are common languages, You keep fighting even though in some cases you are 30% arab and we arabs are what 10% arab in north africa?? Your problem is not the arab, it is the berber who calls himself arab!

jusitke07 Says:
Nov 17, 2008 - So you're telling me the writer of this documentary film is wrong? That no Arabs are abusing any of the Berbers at all? Is that what you're saying?
marockano Says:
Nov 26, 2008 - Dima Maghreb! Arab but peace also with the berbers.
califab Says:
Nov 28, 2008 - As an Arab American, I think Amazighs should be equated with all their rights...Moroccan Arabs have corrupted the country..Fuck Mohammed VI
elmisticco Says:
Nov 29, 2008 - The main objective behind this documentary film is to simply INCITE hatred and "FITNA" among the people of Morocco. In other words, the intent is to fan the flames and divide Morocco and turn it into a country living in chaos. But the honorable Moroccan people are cognizant of this malicious intent.
westside121812 Says:
Nov 30, 2008 - arabs think they have the right to abuse berbers when the berbers should have rights to all north africa because they are the original descendants
marockano Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - ARE YOU ARE SOMETHING , THIS IS BULSHIT. MOROCCO IS ARABIC COUNTRY, AND THIS IS BECAUSE WE TALK ARABIC AS OUR FIRST LANGUAGE, IN MOROCCO IN TERMS OF RACE THERE ISNT ANY DNA DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ARABS AND BERBERS, WE ARE A MULTHI ETHNIC COUNTRY DO YOU DONT UNDERSTRAND, THIS ACTIVISTS OF AMAZIGH HAS COME FROM EUROPE" AND NOTHING MORE! DIMA MAGHREB, et les arabes
marockano Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - You cant say that because Morocco is today totaly historicaly and politacly arab. Even the majority of Moroccans identify themselves as muslims and arabs 60% identify themselves as being a part of arab world.
roidesbelle Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - i don't know where did you get you information. i am not sure that you learned something in history, and i am not sure you anderstand whatis said in this video. moroccans never been arabs and will never be arabs. next time before you open you pottymouth. do some facts check, learn some history before you make an ass of yourself on the net
marockano Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - I am taking this information from real sourcers, What are you talking about never be arabs?, we are arabs , go only to all cities of Morocco, which language do they speak ARABIC?, I think you are a riffian, and you are definetely a minority in Morocco, because I dont think most moroccans have light hair and eyes, ?
marockano Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - The Amazigh people are not homogeneous but very heterogeneous and diverse: (i) Amazigh of Rif; (ii) Chlouh, (iii) Berber, (iv) Kabili, (v) Awrass, (vi) mazab and zanata. (vii) tawarik. The statistic table about the percentage of Amazigh that you SAY does not have any source.
marockano Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - - Direction of statistics in Morocco does not collect information about people according to their ethnic background : (i) arab, (ii) amazigh. So Being ARAB in Morocco, OR AMAZIGH , IS MORE A QUESTION about in terms of identity not in terms of Race, because if we talk about race Morocco is multhi ethnic country, even THE AMAZIGH IS multhi ethnic ,look at the chleuhs they do not look like the riffians. So being arab or being amazigh is linguistic and not more.
marockano Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - Therefore linguistically and in terms of identity Morocco is almost totally an arab country. Et vives tout les Arabes , tout les Marocain who identify themselves with the Arab World. Vive tout les Musulmanes. Fuera acivists who are trying do divide our country. We moroccans and muslims are one UMMAH! so stop try to make propaganda, taking from the french
roidesbelle Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - you sound very ignorant, just for your information: in morocco we have Rif, the three Atlas regions and the south Souss. they all speak tamazighet. and goes all the way down to Niger. so please again do some researches educate yourself and come back i will discuss that with you
roidesbelle Says:
Dec 2, 2008 - If you want to make it an arab country and ignore all the historical fact, that would be your perogative. but before you do that i have alot of information i would like you to read to educate yourself. i will not judge you because i guess you were seckepping your history classes. google it and get yourself some usefull information. but since you are mister kown it all: tell me when the arabs first come into morocco?
