Alice Wilson's reflections on Rusha Latif's 2022 book Tahrir's Youth: Leaders of a Leaderless Revolution are timely and nuanced. She asks: what will happen next, and how can we study revolution and its effects?.
In press today! In "Lessons from Tahrir for Activists and their Allies", Alice Wilson thoughtfully engages with Rusha Latif’s book Tahrir’s Youth: Leaders of a Leaderless Revolution in the context of Syria’s Bashar al-Assad fall from power. @allegra_lab .
