I Love Life In Spite Of All

I Am A Moroccan Writer Of French Expression.

At 21, I Discovered Repression And Injustice. The Army Would Shoot Students With Real Bullets.

People Must Insist On The Right To Say No, To Be Alone, To Stand Out From The Herd. Creative Artists Can Say All This In Their Own Way And In Their Own Field, By Hard, Rigorous Work.

We Must Stop Posing As Victims Of The West And Behaving Negatively Towards The West. We Must Participate With The West On An Equal Footing In The Reconstruction Of The World.

I Don't Feel Guilty About Expressing Myself In French; Nor Do I Feel That I Am Continuing The Work Of The Colonizers.
