Teaching resource re women activists in Arab Spring protests

[Faith Rogow]

For a brief time, Peace is Loud is making available free DVDs of Trials of Spring for classroom.  This is a compelling documentary about women's experience in Egypt's Arab Spring.  Shorts about women in Libya, Tunisia, Yemen, Bahrain, and Syria are also available.  The content includes accounts of women being sexually molested during protests and as a form of intimidation after arrest, so I'd recommend it for advanced level secondary students or college classrooms.
