EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from November 1935 takes us back to the era of French colonization in Morocco. The image showcases a group of young Moroccan children, dressed in traditional attire, diligently selling newspapers on a café terrace in Casablanca. At that time, Morocco was under the protectorate of France. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of daily life during this period. Despite their tender age, these children were already immersed in the world of work and commerce. With determination etched on their faces, they navigate through bustling streets filled with automobiles and city dwellers. The scene exudes an air of resilience and resourcefulness as these young vendors seize every opportunity to make a living amidst challenging circumstances. Their presence adds vibrancy to the urban landscape while also shedding light on the socio-economic dynamics prevalent during colonial times. Through this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of both the complexities and realities faced by Moroccans under French rule. It serves as a poignant reminder not only of historical events but also highlights how ordinary individuals played significant roles within larger narratives. This AFP photo encapsulates an important chapter in Moroccan history - one that continues to shape its cultural fabric today.
