There's a peaceful revolution going on in Morocco, but it seems like international media has hardly noticed. Which is understandable in a way, considering that there are far more pressing issues going on that affect the global village and rightfully deserve the coverage, however excessive sometimes.
In the mean time, the march for freedom and democracy in Morocco continues, and while there are clear signs that progress is being made, it appears that the February 20 movement itself is just barely getting started and won't be done for a while.
In case you're wondering what the movement is up to, here are a few sites I would recommend:
MoroccansForChange has all kinds of opinion pieces providing insight on the February 20 movement. And in case you missed anything, do check out their #Fe20 Timeline.
Talk Morocco has a great list of Moroccan bloggers sharing their take on the current developments in Morocco.
Mamfakinch is the hottest new website providing coverage on events in Morocco, often with an inside scoop on the February 20 movement. They also found a fun way to get the word out recently, using an Einstein caricature as a spokesperson to explain Moroccan politics in English via YouTube. WTG guys!
That's all I have for now. I'll add more later if I find any.
