Women in the Revolution

http://vimeo.com/40413965

I saw that there was a post on children in the revolution, and thought I should post this video. This video presents a clear view of how women are treated in these regions. Obviously, social media played a huge role in promoting this video of this particular woman. Its just really sad to see how these women are being treated just because they are standing up to what they believe in. Human rights for women are still comprised all throughout the world, and like the one girl said, basic respect would definitely would be a nice start to women's rights movement. Young girls as little as the in the video, risk their lives everyday in these revolutions. My favorite quote in this video is:
"The girls of Egypt are here"
This is such a strong movement especially dealing with women's rights and just respect in general.
