After hiding it for a while, Taher Benjelloun, a French writer of Moroccan descent, announced his recovery from Corona's disease in a letter in French that he called "a message to a distant friend".

In his letter, the French-language novelist expressed his optimism about life after recovery, and said that he looks "at the sky and the sun in another way" and that his attention will attract birds singing more, recalling some of his old and imagined memories.

Although he said that the stone is not suitable for writing, describing the extended time as much and surrounding it like a mirage and preventing it from moving, he cut his silence and spoke about the forms of inequality in Paris at the time of the Corona pandemic.

And Ben Jelloun considered that the Corona crisis not only revealed France's deficit, its shortcomings, its insufficiency, and its poor clairvoyance, but also shed light on the shameful part of a country that had long decided to abandon the inhabitants of its suburbs, and continued, "The epidemic has magnified regional and social disparities."

Catastrophic
 suburbs Paris suburbs recorded the highest death rate due to corona virus, which reached 63% of infected people, while the French capital itself recorded only 32%.

The Moroccan writer said in his article, which was translated and published by the Italian newspaper "La Repubblica", that while France counts its dead, "I noticed that the majority of the victims are from the Parisian suburbs, especially from the province of Seine-Saint-Denis, known as" the province of 93. "A doctor estimated The mortality rate has increased by 63% in this unpopular region of the capital. "

The writer, who holds the highest French literary award, believes that this result is consistent with the catastrophic situation of the French urban suburbs, and added that this unhealthy and polluted environment does not correspond to the comprehensive closure, so the virus destroyed families in these deprived areas. With large families crowded in narrow spaces, it is clear that a total closure is complex, if not impossible, at his discretion.

The author states that in the 93 poorer region (or Seine Saint-Denis) of the greater Paris regions, the medical director admits that there are "fewer doctors and beds of resuscitation", compared to other regions in the country.

For example, the number of recovery beds is three times lower than it is in the Haute-de-Seine region, west of Paris, the richest in France, and this inequality has resulted in more casualties in the 93 region than in the rest of the country.

Bin Jelloun considers that the health crisis resulted only in the increase in inequality and instability in which these neighborhoods, which the Republic abandoned, were known, despite the unfulfilled speeches and promises.

In 2005, when Nicolas Sarkozy was the Minister of the Interior, those suburbs erupted, in turn, the police struggled to restore order, and the clashes continued for more than three weeks. Today, frustration and a growing sense of injustice have pushed young people out onto the street once more to express their anger. The clashes between these boys and the security forces were violent and began on Saturday, April 18th, by burning cars and attacking public property.

Claiming justice
 The writer explained that these young people who are hatred towards the police are behaving violently, because they lost a father or grandfather without being able to bury him. Soon they realized that their condition made them more vulnerable to infection and that they were unable to adhere to mass stone, so they took to the streets to demand justice.

Consequently, bin Jalloun continues, some have thrown simple things at the policemen, who responded with tear gas and arrests. In fact, videos denouncing police violence took place. The situation would remain the same in 2005 if it was not exacerbated by the Corona pandemic and the lack of tools to deal with this tragedy. 

The writer stated that there had been an accident in which a motorcycle driver collided with a police car. The reactions on both sides were excessive and the tension increased gradually, pointing out that the residents of these suburbs are already living in a post-health crisis situation, as they are unemployed and not hoping to find a job.

France's “sick” lands
 The author explained that the suburbs are “sick lands” in France, as no government has been able to find serious and concrete solutions to this deterioration in which part of the French population lives. On April 7, Emmanuel Macron went to District 93 to reassure the population, but to no avail because families are having difficulties getting patients hospitalized.

Without wearing the mask, the president urged the crowd who headed towards him to return to their homes and not leave. He has really ignored the living conditions of these poor, ostracized, hated and ill-treated populations, in the words of the Moroccan-French writer.

On the other hand, many found this visit flawed, as one does not come to a damaged area, whose hospitals complain of a lack of equipment, and to a people with a 30% unemployment rate to teach them a lesson on how to avoid corona infection. 

Today, the expression of anger is accompanied by feelings of fear and mourning, and it is said that these second-class residents comprise a large majority of immigrants and children of immigrants from the Maghreb and Africa, who will end up with the violent revolution that will not be compared to the 2005 revolution.

Ben Jelloun belongs to the second generation of the French book in Morocco, he wrote poetry, novel and story, and his works were distinguished by folklore, and his political statements drew sharp criticism recently.

Several novels were issued to him, including "Harouda" in 1973, "The Prayer of the Unseen" in 1981, "Night of Power" in 1987, and "That Brilliant Dark" in 2001.
