Abstract

It was a routine winter night. Men sat gathered at the Café Fuentes, one of the fabled coffee houses in the medina of Tangier. A chilly gust blew up from the port, dispersing the aroma of tea and cannabis in the air. During the colonial days Hotel Fuentes, owned by the famed Spanish painter Antonio Fuentes, was a favored brasserie for high society. As European and American expats departed, Café Fuentes became a gathering spot for local elders, fishermen working in the port, random hawkers, and jobless youth. By the early 2000s, it was drawing West African migrants who had settled in the medina, hoping to try their luck and cross the Straits of Gibraltar to Spain.
Gnawa镜:种族、音乐和“类别的帝国主义”
这是一个平常的冬夜。男人们聚集在富恩特斯咖啡馆,这是丹吉尔麦地那著名的咖啡馆之一。一阵冷风从港口吹来,空气中弥漫着茶和大麻的香气。在殖民时期,富恩特斯酒店由著名的西班牙画家安东尼奥·富恩特斯所有,是上流社会的一个受欢迎的小酒馆。随着欧洲和美国侨民的离开,富恩特斯咖啡馆成了当地老人、在港口工作的渔民、随机小贩和无业青年的聚集地。到21世纪初,它吸引了在麦地那定居的西非移民,他们希望试试运气,穿越直布罗陀海峡前往西班牙。
