Abstract
Tahar Ben Jelloun's writing has often given a voice to the excluded and marginalized in exile, whether internal or external. Many of his novels denounce the representations of stigmatisation and humiliation within societies that reflect the values of tolerance. In his stories, we observe a permanent confrontation between the narrator's space of identity and the space of the Other. Both spaces are inevitably confronted with tensions due to religion, culture and language. In particular, Racism Explained to My Daughter represents a dialogue between the author-narrator and his young daughter about the different representations of racism and the methods of replacing it with tolerance
