"Morocco was one of the only countries that accepted Jews during WW2. They protected them and wouldn't surrender them to Hitler. I wanted to see their cemeteries but didn't expect this. These white mounds are used instead of headstones and there is no identification for paupers or royalty. I found it very moving."
