 Winds of change: North Africa & Middle East
Winds of change: North Africa & Middle EastThe lessons of the past year are eloquent and clear: The winds of change will not cease to blow. The flame ignited in Tunisia will not be dimmed. Let us remember, as well: none of these great changes began with a call for a regime change. First and foremost, people wanted dignity. They want an end to corruption. They want a say in their future. They want jobs and justice, a fair share of political power. They want their human rights.
