Spain is in Ceuta because it was part of Al-Andalus. after 1492 it became NOT a migration point but an EXPULSION point.

#Morocco has been complicit with #Spain since the days of the Hapsburgs. they helped La Corona in #deportations of spanish moros, sefaradís and even iberian ethnic groups like basque, gallegos, catalanes.

#Marruecos is to #España what El Salvador is today to #Trump and #MAGA #Project2025.

Spain’s first sugar plantations were worked by moro & sefaradí slaves in Morocco.

I'm learning that Spain has a colony in North Africa, and wondering why the mid 20th century decolonial struggles missed that one.
