The 'Girl In The Blue Bra' : The Picture Show : NPR
The 'Girl In The Blue Bra' : The Picture Show : NPR
these links give the lie to the Egyptian revolution. With the military in power nothing has changed. The military was in power before, just with Mubarak as leader.
Don't think this can never happen here. It has in the past and it will again. This is striking because of the blue bra. The blue bra itself illustrates a hidden attempt to make a statement of legitimacy even if covered by a veil or burkha. The for a woman to be thus exposed and beaten senseless in public denies the supposed respect for women.
This photograph has the potential to be shattering just as the photograph of the girl in green in Iran was. Study the photograph and watch the video and determine to oppose such behavior in our country and in the rest of the world.
