Description
Summary:This article analyzes the emergence of a form of feminist activism in Morocco that has started to reactivate after 20F - the Moroccan version of the Arab Spring - and has become more visible on the streets during protests. Its stands outside the historic feminist movement further to its anti-neoliberal character. Due to its involvement in the 20F movement, we propose to analyze it in the light of frameworks elaborated in Latin America, which name it popular feminism. This activism is led by Moroccan women, mainly proceeding from rural areas, who fight for the defense of the common and for the reproduction of life.
