Women of the Arab Spring

Here are two short videos about women and the Arab Spring. John Stewart of the Daily Show hosted a panel of Arab women recently. Both clips are short, each less than three minutes.

In the first clip, Nadia Al-Skkafa,discusses how women in Yemen helped shape and empower public opinion.

My AP World students did a project comparing the French Revolution to the Arab Spring last semester and some just saw The Square for extra credit. These two clips will add to their understanding of the revolutions.
