Revolution in Egypt I'm with you guys, I'm on my phone, I'm obsessively checking twitter which I'd practically shunned before I'm dedicating my facebook to sharing information I'm figuring out how to use proxies which I'd never even heard of before And I swear to God I'd be on the streets right now if my father didn't literally beat me up with a shebsheb (flip flop) to prevent me from going (yeah I know, he was talking about how violence shouldn't be used on the streets, but apparently it's fine at home) Most of the time I make excuses for his sexism but today for the first time ever, Egyptian forces deployed female officers to "deal" with all the female protesters that were out there Time for Egypt-- and time for Baba to re-think what the role of "woman" is I'm so proud of you brave women out there! Show them what we're really made of! |
