TAOUGRAT OULT AISSA: a Moroccan Female Voice of Amazigh Resistance against Colonialism
Om avsnittet
In this episode, join me as I dive into the life and the historical significance of Taougrat Oult Aissa, an Amazigh poetess and ahidous singer from the Middle Atlas region of Morocco. Born in the 19th century, she is remembered for her contributions to Amazigh culture during a critical period marked by French colonialism in Morocco. Taougrat Oult Aissa’s poetry and songs despite her blindness resonated deeply with her community and beyond as it adressed themes of resilience and resistance against external forces. Her artistic legacy continues to be celebrated for its profound cultural and historical impact in North Africa.
