The Moroccan national movement was launched after the events of the Barbarian Dahir (decree) on May 16, 1930, as a response to the French protection authorities' attempts to undermine the Moroccan identity. That is why the cultural resistance has emerged in many of its stages and documents in the context of demanding important reforms, the most important of which is: the petition of the demand submitted in the context of the protests against the barbarian decree in 1930, This was followed by the journalistic phase in which the print media took the lead in defending the Moroccan identity, especially with the golden age of the emergence of "Al-Maghrib" magazine published in Paris July 1932, the newspaper "Work of the People" published in Morocco on August 4, 1933, and the demands of the Moroccan people in 1934.
