Lucio A. Bianchi’s Reviews > Black Morocco: A History of Slavery, Race, and Islam > Status Update

El Hamel’s work represents a significant contribution to the historiography of slavery and race relations within early modern Moroccan society. In the book, the author points out that Moroccan history has generally been written to reflect the past but not to question or re-examine it by considering the specific culture of non-Arabs and non-Muslims.
