the combination between the American-African people in USA and The Riffain people im Morocco.

The human psychology is

xenophobic, so once it sees a stranger

linguistically, ideologically, and ethnically ; it

takes an aggressive position. For centuries,

minority groups have been always

considered different cultures from the

surrounding society. Furthermore, minority

across the globe are usually treated

offensively. For instance the African-

American people in the United States of

America and the Riffis people in Morocco.

           The African-American people face a 

numerous issues in the American society.

Firstly, we have to take in consideration that

the majority of African-American people have
been labor hand and servants ,thereby, they

had an essential role in constructing the

United States. However, they have been left

behind as a minority on the edge of society.

The African-American's history is full of

margining, segregation, and oppression

scenes based on racist factors, such as

black people were only allowed to sit

backside of the bus and educational

separation between the blacks and whites.

"Woodrow Wilson was an outspoken white

supremacist who believed that blacks were

inferior" said J.Lowen . To wrap up, the

African-American will remain suffering ,as

long as, racism exists.

          The Rif region has passed through a 

rough period under the monarchy regime.

Historically, in the post-independence,

precisely, in 1958-1959, Riffis rebelled

against the Moroccan policies toward the Rif

region, but the military forces funnelled the

Riffis ,unhesitatingly, by the will of prince 2nd
Hassan. When he inherited the leadership, in

one of his speeches insulted the Riffis as

"riffraffs". After the death of 2nd Hassan, 6th
Mohamed became the king, he proclaimed

conciliation with the Rif region ,but it was

only on papers. Right after the death of ,

Mohsin Fikri, the fishmonger that was ground
savagely in a trash truck , people came out to
condemn the convicted and rise a

socioeconomic demands, including

university, hospital ,and factory.... However,

the authorities arrested about 400 protesters

and caused one death. To sum up the

Moroccan authorities still exercising tyranny

on this minority group.

           These two minorities have many 

matters in common. Firstly, they have an

important role in developing the two

countries. However, they both have been

suffering from oppression and discrimination
by the authority and society. To conclude the
two minorities are both similar to each other.

            As a conclusion, we observe that 

these two minorities are treated negligently,

but at least the African-American reached

some of their legal rights unlike the Riffis.
