شبكة مغربية أمريكية تطلق “الشبكة” يوم الاستقلال المغربي

واشنطن، العاصمة – يسرّ الشبكة المغربية الأمريكية الإعلان عن إطلاق منصة “الشبكة”، وهي منصة إخبارية تهدف إلى تعزيز الروابط التاريخية بين المغرب والولايات المتحدة. سيبدأ بث “الشبكة” في الثامن عشر من نوفمبر، تزامناً مع يوم الاستقلال المغربي، والذي يحمل أهمية كبيرة للمغاربة حول العالم.

وتستند منصة “الشبكة” إلى إيمان راسخ بأن كل مجتمع يستحق أن يُسمع صوته، حيث تعمل على أن تكون جسراً لنقل القيم المشتركة والتراث الثقافي والشراكات المتنامية بين البلدين. ومن خلال البث المباشر من الولايات المتحدة، يسعى فريق “الشبكة” إلى إنشاء مصدر إعلامي شامل وملهم يكرم تراثنا ويخدم مجتمعاتنا.

وقال المتحدث باسم “الشبكة”: “هذا إنجاز كبير لفريقنا هنا في الولايات المتحدة. ونتطلع لأن يُسمع صوتنا وأن نساهم في تعزيز صداقة تاريخية بين المغرب والولايات المتحدة.”

وتتطلع الشبكة المغربية الأمريكية في المستقبل إلى توسيع نطاق عمل “الشبكة” ليشمل المغرب، لتعزيز التعاون والحوار بين البلدين.

“كل واحد عندو حلم، ووقت ما نحققو شي واحد، كنطمعو فحلم أكبر. راه هادي غريزة إنسانية. الحلم ديالي كان بسيط، بغيت نربي ولادي ونتأكد باللي عندنا الخبز على الطابلة. فتحنا Audio Visual Actions حيث كنا مضطرين، وكان كل ما بغيت هو 100 دولار فاليوم. درت الميزانية وقلت مع راسي ديك 100 غادي تكفينا. ولكن وأنا كنكبر، كان عندي حلم آخر - بغيت نصاوب مجلة إخبارية ونحتفل بالتراث ديالي. بغيت ملي نموت، ولادي يذكرو بلي باباهم حاول يغرس فيهم تراثو. دابا Chabaka News غادي فالطريق ديال التجربة والخطأ، وقريب غادي نطلقوها هنا وفي المغرب. ماشي غير باش نديرو الأخبار، ولكن باش نزيدو قيمة ونوصلو رسالة. خاصنا نبنيو جسور ما بين الولايات المتحدة والمملكة
“Every person has a dream, and when we accomplish one, we begin to desire a bigger dream. This is just part of being human. My dream started out simple: to raise my children and ensure we always had food on the table. We founded Audio Visual Actions out of necessity, with a modest goal of making $100 a day. Back then, I made a budget and thought that $100 would be enough to get by. As I grew older, though, my aspirations grew too—I wanted to create a news magazine and celebrate my heritage. I want my kids to remember that their father tried to keep his heritage alive. Now, Chabaka News is going through trial and error, but we’re launching soon in both the U.S. and Morocco. Beyond news, we want to add value, to build bridges that matter between the U.S. and the Kingdom of Morocco. Never give up on your dreams—each step forward is one step closer to what you are meant to achieve.”

We have been contemplating the establishment of a news outlet in the US for the Moroccan American network for several years. Now, with a team in place in the US, we are actively working on this project. Trial and error are an integral part of this experience. We plan to launch on November 18 of this year, marking a significant milestone in our journey. We are also refining the final version in English. Publication is forthcoming.
