"قوة المرأة المصرية"
"Strength Of The Egyptian Woman"
The Arab spring revolution, in Egypt, brought with it so much upheaval.  Extremists took over the government and under their rule, they ordered women to cover themselves and stay at home.  So many unspeakable atrocities took place.  I was inspired by a story that my cousin, who lives in Egypt told me; the women in Upper Egypt were surrounding the ancient churches to prevent the terrorists from burning these churches down.  The women stepped in, when the men were too afraid.  Wow I loved that.
