Labor protest in Alexandria

Posted on 02/07/200728/12/2020 By 3arabawy

Citizen-journalism at its best.

While walking in the street Alexandrian blogger Moneer unexpectedly bumped into a protest by Tersanet Iskandriya (Alexandria Arsenal) retired workers, who accepted an early buyout, only to get ripped off by their bosses.

Moneer swung into action right away, interviewed the workers, took photos, video clips, uploaded them to the net, with a detailed report and even a Google Earth snapshot of the protest location.

This is a great illustration for how citizen-journalist can act. Documenting the “memory of the class” is only getting easier and easier.
