PBS NEWSHOUR: GlobalPost's 'Egypt Voices' Series Looks at All Aspects of Revolution21 November 2011
Unless unrest in Cairo delays them, Egypt's military leaders plan to hold parliamentary elections starting Nov. 28 to forge ahead on a planned transition to democracy following the ouster of Hosni Mubarak. Our partners at the international website GlobalPost are taking a closer look. GlobalPost launched a series Monday, called "Egypt Votes: From Tahrir Square to the Ballot Box," which explores all aspects of the revolution and how it's impacting society today. The series of multimedia reports was produced by a team of 17 young Egyptian and American journalists participating in a program funded by the Open Hands Initiative. (View a list of the participants and their personal thoughts on the revolution.) ..........................................................................................
