east coast. some maurice goes, were christians in public, and at the same time, secretly held on to their muslim faith. these lasted for a century, but things came to a head again in 16 o 9. when a royal decree stated that the marine corps should be expelled from de b we and peninsula on this account at the apple of him, what is christ for another one? if you're on this one, it's been duffy let up. all of you don't part of that. this somebody only put a should enter. don't family north left corner here. no, no maurice quick one. the star one he come in thin, but a candle settled on what for the shabby l. sylium said, okay, that will mean modi's closing on a few knowledge them uses. he does more than the few, but it also comes from the few people into it, but element, they'll another national timor's quotas, caveat of foot understood marino's more than i can move into gammas and then as under than the wolf. ah,

it's hard to imagine the cruelty of these force expulsion after 8 centuries, leaving the peninsula only to be expelled over night. i wonder did some of them dig in their heels and stay? these got me thinking about my own family. my mother used to say that her father had our books. he was from on maria in the south of spain. and the story goes that the our upstair were deported to valencia. really. i know my now, i never knew my grandfather. so it was time to ask my grandmother about him today. he passed away when still a young man, and i know that talking about him still brings great sadness to my grandmother. but i had to ask and i would have, you know, media in madison murphy. i'm giving you a call at this time run what? no matter what i love to get up, when i get to without internet,

i've known wondered if mine sisters were maurice because from spain. but apart from a sense of kinship with these people, i freshest little evidence to follow. ah, what must have been like for families denied their faith and a brute from the land that was rightfully before being just a dream due to the unknown. ah not as i knew maurice blue i'm much was eaten does is floyd out of it. you know? he said they are going to buy most today to look at it 1st was young here on the part of her. however, then you know what? he was bored of those little liquid doors as the man would say, skin, those measures can touch my what else was a what have you as a family? so then i guess i got yeah, you might have them into a corner pushed on a plan. the letters would be in there. well. okay. pulliam got an elevator didn't anyway either key this. hm. which is a monday. there's an element,

of course that on and thalia came to the us and he will read every single day and i get final thing, call me maurice course. think of meeting coming up pretty met of the out and of premier as the as this portion foreclosure. i think will mean monte scholarship but got on corner postal last week, but i don't hear a lot on that. i feel bad about others, but obeys, have a more relaxed audio book at all for them a and they got a mean and then he, i, sorry i don't. what in days of when the foreigners have done this, that the other no compet our push very much when dos, i mean maurice political so they can look at the last 4. mm hm. that's just the let me know. let me map weather that as puts you on a one let you know that's not the theory. hello maurice, cause they look stop us on them. so can you another one? icicle duncan, simon. maurice. first it was just when the when last drop us. imperial is little

effectively enough policy that he filia, because i wanna feel certain that i went over that underwriter e been, and i started stuck into that. i wanted to san antonio, united just until 40. so i won't see him on the under all of them. what he's got a lot of articles last nursery, lally's e los gatos, egless. yes. because williams, the director of me, norman or philip is honey, i'm lucky. let's see. a mean on maurice kits was here. says our yard estimate on the school year. kill will not give up all of them cookie though, but whole apple take film. they say noticed with alice can look what else was had to be. feel what is good mati skirts and i honestly importantly forecast hateful for an out of here. he yup. e, those is what i must pay, get them what have you if you ask us on this and then to there's more sketch. so what i mean, not only they don't want any of your fish hold of a w. okay. on the mountains of valencia are not far from the area where i grew up. but in those

childhood days, in ever consider that some of the muslims who resisted expulsion may have sought refuge in these lonely hills. i am on my way to meet than all, sir, who's written about word these people might have hidden from persecution? yes, no, or be no. he is like we were only got, we're going to look on the phenotypic wireless data. so when you so much greater ask him if you know who familiar with me is a little head is we're going to and i will use a major a dollars if we were just wanted to get it fixed. i was going to with family a little, one of the question i got you achieve stuck in alina. i got the all the ok. you got the yeah. it was him for in thing is i'm one other. i'll make that while the

data is mean couple out of a if you got, did he not it, that is back. when i see a us cable from last year, my for tuesday, my very cool, marcia moskowitz, like i said, i'm out of this or the amount of this on the you gotta stop on the phone the last year or the lobby on this. i was how washed up all a feeling which will manage morty, sky, state, and you and maybe you start repeating them. well, i'm one of the lot of good. i don't break it up or i feel like you're picking your car. city. ok. aaliyah. listen. a lot of that, or if your community journal last gift, shall you don't and she will not be involved yesterday. love. yes. you are with us . yes. and his mother put the guy. you tell him what you quoted initial one was get people. why didn't you want to let the others and give us hasn't done english again? i been at the is deal migrate over to the, in the general, been told by you that your whole got for dentist. bruce's george, john, talk on the right. there's just like in the city or the load up with

. so it seems that some of the maurice good did indeed stay in spain by threats of persecution. the ford station. and beth, i wonder, was this because they simply couldn't leave the place where they had lived for generations. or was it that they stayed out of fear of the unknown? i'm heading to their records valley, also known as the valley of the maurice. cuz it said that summaries crossing this area, scape deportation because of the good relations they enjoyed with their christian neighbors. i'm on their way to meet someone who claims to know some of the descendants of the maurice gossip these volley, who still live to day in spain. nor say, afford em thought what is going in which a minute he wrote at the most nicole in. okay, but the government in castilla

a lawful mother. i left you a couple of dollars that i get out on your vehicle looking at, are you that oriental aluminum? what they, what is called a lot on the the msn lucel. i'm in there lately. good. does he know in la jolla only me the way i think going to get out on them in, but then there's a little bush or you know room, but then they, they families equal yodi fitness have been done day. marty school followed by them was up in the world are as follows, the window, gillis ah ah, there is no commence. we're used to for the 1st time here around 15. 68. i've come across one know can man in spain small to see a region was used to paris records to tracy the me ah. are in the annette towing internet on by so the only

families we mine is the char lagossi or annoyed i work in idaho. and under they continue, adam adam johns, esther. this cody witcher. that was a big deal. gracie aguilar, k documentary degree and what he goes a lot when the flu shot and you know, if i don't get into the last matthew that i knew, i mean, she doesn't in the single category. no, i think i'm in the system. daniel michelle daniels. i can push it as soon as i'm in the initial initial, i'll go into a benefit loss. i will not need those keys to live in the study made it easier or, you know, the nice thing is i needed so many total miriam,

i really don't need to remember when the, when the mentally for mental when, when the key. but if it was made to the agency and i don't know the make me feel that even though the mother has me, it feels like pieces of for centuries all jake. so i come together, the local major, who's travelling on a similar historic and journey to mine has gathered the group of people who believe they're all direct descendants of the maurice course. yeah. which is on the just doesn't i don't. yeah. that i know. i mean, like when i get off? no, not. you know, it's a 30 i get any, i'm going to you again by so the initial law, the law, marla murray, car, she done so then last year when i was 5, but a buddy figured out the doctors are not going out of the us as well. by the said,

can organize us and has to finally get it. like i know i'll get them. all mcclellan are not going to for 911 through the automated from. i don't believe my initial, you're going to put a new book as you of the into a new issue. which one you would you know and lay 30 or go by good. i guess. so we didn't do so on the law. carol got a little it, did you love your piece of kit in or you go more than me ago or go more go. i'll out of the day after that it it to the mom here. the okay. i got a bill. i will shoot it up. okay. mcclendon, so to con or to him details i will get out, but if you're so she put a convey is super sad, almost man. so i watch a lot the group who claim to be descendants of the maurice good said i should meet

a british professor who is an expert on spanish history. could the professor confirmed what others have claimed that the maurice cause of southern spain were not all expelled? at the start of the 16th century, and if some state could it be that many of today's christian spaniards, half muslin roots. in the case of the, of the more discourse, it seems clear to me that the expulsion was not a total success. that doesn't mean to say that it wasn't a success, but it wasn't a total success. not all of the maurice course were expelled and certainly in those who were expelled, significant numbers returned. we don't have numbers of those who returned the obvious reasons. they kept very quiet. they aren't going to publish the fact that they've returned it's quite difficult. it's

hard work. goes in a way is much easier to sort of believe they were all expelled. then you don't have to do any more work. it's more complicated, but it's much more interesting and it gives, i think, a much true a picture of the diversity of spain in the early 17th century. it was still multicultural. it was still multiethnic. and there were still people who were tolerant, who accepted others who were not fanatics, bigots. i'm very much the opposite of what li black legend lay in the negarra as taught us. so i think that's very positive professor, that's an offer to take me to see bill i rover. he wanted to share the evidence. he had found there that suggested that the maurice gus both are bright and prospered

in this area. v o v i is, it is a fascinating case. it was a seniority or land. so we have all the documentation of the lord of the village and his archive. and what's clear, the maurice cause of the rubia are assimilating quite rapidly. they can occupy posts in the town council. this gives them power political power. they send their children, their songs to university, they run the local school, the doctor, and the dentist, maurice course. they seem to be well integrated, but the crew, the critical thing is they have an educated elite so that when the expulsions come, they actually have political leaders who can keep the group together. they maintain a sense of identity. so even though they're expelled to france, they can very quickly reorganize and come back again. having the support of the

counter salinas is also clearly important. and of course, having the support of their own christian neighbors who don't want to see them go so that when they do come back, they looked after and i hidden their old christian neighbors hide them and they take them food and they look after them. and within a few years after the explosions, the whole villages integrated again when i've been there and talked about my studies and my books on the rubia, they're always very proud to be able to say, we are descendants of the british casa vo, rubia. and these are our names and we found on names in your books bipolar great to see if this is the handwriting of the counter salinas, who is the lord of v rubia has his own handwriting. this is signature. i see the

convey they salinas everybody or do get a frank viola. and this is the answer by the secretary of state antonio. the hour of peggy said that his thus his own is written up himself. and what does he have to do with maurice goes? well, he is the lord of e or rubia and am. so he is his village and it's a village that is a half and half old christians. i am. maurice goes and in the time of the expulsions, the last thing that he wants or needs is half of his village. yeah. disappearing. right. so what he was doing in the background was ensuring that the maurice cost would be able to remain. and then this is the man in charge of the expulsions for counter salazer who's also writing officially to say you have to expel your maurice curse. and salina, so this is an autograph letter. there's a signature, the county,

alyssa, and then salinas writes back and am is absolutely fun. it's really funny because they clearly don't like each other and saline as wallace says to him, you don't know anything about my village. it's nothing to do with you. i will sort out what has to be done and you leave my moorish cars alone. i for example, vo rubia at certain surnames. i know we're surnames or more discourse, so need nino, nito palazzios in via rubia. i'm already so really so my name makes her name if you were from via rubia and your surname is palazzios castaneda. yeah. i will be reasonably confident that your family were. maurice goes but you don't come from the other. i have no, i mean my grandparents didn't, but others i don't know. you don't know. you need to look and check your your past . yeah. who knows? yeah. when i 1st came across this documentation i thought, wow, this is unique. yeah, i've never read this before. and that's what started me. i got me interested in

trying to work out well what, what was happening, what happened? and particularly to the maurice goes over. yeah. rubia. and was this happening elsewhere? mm. meeting. professor dodson was sort of a relation, not just his great depth of knowledge, but the fact that he knows things, but not even my own palm. you knows. he's confident that both my father and mothers from me names may give clues to possible maurice, cause us history. my father's name is collapse. it's a common name in the capital madrid. so that's my next destination. ah, african narrative from african perspective now, but now we're about his big daily. i have put a short documentary by african filmmakers from democratic republic of congo.

and wanda, there was never going to be letting an obstacle just stand in front of you. that is what made the intimate connection between myself and join the diggers and merchants, and certainly africa direct on al jazeera. the latest news as it breaks. this used to be the historic town center. now it is leveled with detailed coverage. live trust is robbie and cry is that like monte countries should step up and pushed back against perceived aggress is russia and china from around the world. a database being established to make sure they have the details of the sympathisers, the supporters and the fighters, which belong to the group. there's a lot more to al jazeera than tv with our website mobile app, social media, and podcast. al jazeera digital is a world of award winning online content and portal bring view the very best of it.

they're trying to frighten the people to levy to go somewhere else. but the truth is that they've got nowhere else to go. so if you miss it online to catch up here with me, sandra, got them on our designer. ah . but back towards 0. well, just a moment, professor, another look at your headlines on al jazeera and u. s. health regulators of approved phases pill to treat covered 19 studies are showing it reduces severe symptoms by nearly 90 percent as far as the approval of a pill by merck in the u. k. meanwhile, israel's prime ministers, welcome to plan to offer a 4th vaccine dose to people older than 60. it's expected to get final approval

from the health ministry in the coming days. but nigerian authority has been forced to destroy a 1000000 expired curve at 19 back. things are all.
