Video of Egypt's Protests


This is the story of an idea whose time has come. An idea that began in Tunisia, and is now spreading through the Arab world like wildfire: democracy. Please help share this important, inspiring story with the people you know - we are witnessing history!

Egypt:

"After decades of autocratic rule, state propaganda, institutionalized government corruption, police brutality, and suppression of basic freedoms, frustrated Egyptians are taking to the streets seeking change and demanding democracy, dignity, and civic reforms.

"The uprising was organized and carried out by ordinary Egyptians from every walk of life as a non-partisan, non-ideological, peaceful push for reform. Virtually every segment of Egyptian life was represented: young and old, professionals and laborers, men and women, religious and secular, Muslim and Christian."
