The Arab Spring popular uprising a decade ago proved how effectively young people can mobilize to fight for their freedom. As hundreds of thousands of people packed into the square day after day, women were regularly touched, groped, and shoved around. At some point, swarms of men stripped a handful of women naked or down to their underwear, beat and raped them, and left them to fend for themselves.
