Journalists will hold a sit-in in front of the Public Prosecutor’s office in downtown today, Saturday noon, to protest the assault against Ad-Dostour journalist Ahmad Badr, who was beaten up by the police force securing the US embassy’s 4th of July celebrations in Muhammad Ali’s Palace in Shobra.
The police operation to “secure” the area for the embassy’s party caused “traffic crisis” as Al-Masry Al-Youm reports.
Tomorrow is the anniversary of the assassination of Palestinian writer and PFLP activist Ghassan Kanafani, killed with his niece 8 July 1972, by a car bomb in Beirut, planted by the terrorist state of Israel.
Labor strikes, factory occupations, student protests, street clashes, sit-ins, anti-regime cartoons, activist animations–these all need to be collected, archived, and uploaded to the net. We cannot just be content with spreading the “word,” we have also to spread the “image”.
If you have any video clips of demos, strikes, activist songs, don’t just leave them on your computer hard disks or mobile phones. Go ahead and get a free YouTube account and start uploading ya shabab.
