Feminist Street Art of Cairo - Scoop Empire

Feminist Street Art of Cairo - Scoop Empire | For Art's Sake-1 | Scoop.it
From scoopempire.com - February 7, 2014 11:15 PM

"Since the revolution began in 2011, Cairo has witnessed a blossoming of street art expressing voices from many segments of Egyptian society and social movements. The women’s movement, defined in broad terms, was among the first to express its messages of anti-harassment, anti-brutality and freedom of agency on the city’s walls. Many of the images have gone as quickly as they’ve come due to weekly repainting projects by the Ministry of Interior, but luckily they were documented in time by savior photographers and will now live on forever on the interwebz.
