#egyptian revolution

[scarz-xo]

23 of January 2011, The 25th of January 2011 revolution in Egypt has already begun & I was a 10 years old staying at home cause we had curfews imposed by the government at that time.

I got my first period on that day the 23rd of January, I was lucky enough to get the guidance of my mother, to find sanitary period products to use, I had water to shower & have warm drinks & before curfew my parents were able to get me some sweet stuff I would crave.

If you don't know, that was a dangerous time in my country as chaos were happening everywhere that hypermarkets were stolen at that time & it was dangerous especially that a terrorist attack happened before it as well.

Why am I mentioning all of that? Because as I had the privilege to have all that during dangerous time when I had my period the Palestinian women do not have that privilege at the moment, it has been more than 70 days which could mean women there might have had 2-3 times of continuous bleeding if not more due to the stress & anxiety they're living through.

During that time we always wish for warmth, food, pads/tampons/menstrual cups or whatever you use & alot of things that brings us comfort let alone out mental needs as well.

These women have none of these, I've seen a post about a Palestinian woman who had to cut from the tent to make herself a pad that's 100% not sanitary with their lack of at least water to start with.

Simple life needs don't exist there & these women & the girl who might get their first periods other than the fact that they lack all that, they might not even have someone to guide them through their first period cause more children have been orphaned.

Sadly I don't have donation links to post regarding this subject but if you have please reblog with them so we can spread awareness about this sensitive subject.

Youssef Seddik was one of the communist individuals in the Free Officers movement and was a member of the (DMNL or HADITU). On the night of 23 July, he was one of the spearheads who countered maneuvers by the officers affiliated with the monarchy to crush the revolution.

Today marks 70 years [July 23 1952] since Egyptians gained independence from British rule where the monarchy was controlled by the British and we have changed into a republic. Happy National Day [عيد ثورة 23 يوليو] to EGYPT.

Egypt first declared independence in 1922, but did not gain independence until the 1950s. This is because during the legal processes of 1922 that reestablished the Sultanate of Egypt, Britain gave itself reserved powers without the consent of the Egyptian government- control over foreign relations, communications, the military, and continued control in Sudan. The 1950s revolution served both the function of getting rid of British military occupation and the Egyptian constitutional monarchy- which didn't have the power to defy the British Empire, as evidenced by the 1942 incident where they forced King Farouk to appoint a British approved PM by surrounding his palace with military forces. Egyptians celebrate July 23 as independence day, the date associated with the 1952 coup against Farouk, not a date associated with the 1922 revolution.

You know the Suez Canal, which you were all memeing about not that long ago? Egyptian forces fought the UK, France, and Israel to gain control of it for Egypt as a country in the 50s. 2000+ to 4000+ Egyptians died in the fight for the canal, compared to only a little over 200 combined for the other three. Before that point it was controlled by British and French shareholders, hence the fight over it still being considered a victory by Egyptians.

#Cipher talk #My feelings about the revolution are complicated #It was led by the military and directly led to the past 70 years of military focused dictatorships #And in the aftermath a lot of Nasser's policies decimated minority Egyptian communities on the basis of them being foreign #And the building of the high Aswan dam which displaced basically all of Nubia in Egypt #But also. Fuck the British. #Anyway sorry I've just seen a few things lately list Egypt as gaining independence in 1922 and the truth is its more complicated than that #This is relevant to archeology as well. My constant gripe with Egyptologists is they don't understand modern Egyptian history.

A scene: the Egyptian Revolution. Heru (Horus) and Set arrive, on time, among the crowd.

Horus is the youthful and troubled ruler of a world riddled with injustice (to put it lightly) and conflict. He stands for order, but is this really a world which needs more "order"? Set is the cunning and skilled element of pressure/chaos as he has always been positioned within the system. He stands for the power in chaos, but is this a world which really needs more chaos? They know each other very well, having been in a consistent power struggle since the beginning of that story, as is their role in their world. Horus' eye, the one Set plucked out and Isis his mother healed, cannot stop crying. He can't stop seeing, his name that means "the one on high"; Horus cannot stop seeing, Horus cannot stop crying. The youthful prince is burdened by the role he has to play; he does not know what he needs to do for this world, only that he is needed, and he has no choice to turn away. He is burdened by the shadow of his father, ever a more wise and just ruler (even now, in the Underworld), ever beloved, and more becoming of the role than he. He is burdened by the love of his mother, who worries for him, and he does not want her to worry. What is a prince in the modern world? What is a god who oversees the realm of just rule and power? Today, the Egyptian people have come together to do something new; something dangerous and powerful. Heru thinks that he has decided on what he is for them. Set is here too. They have been working closely more than ever in this modern era, where the power of chaos and the concept of justice often go hand in hand. His mother wipes away the tear tracks from his eye, says she will hold the grief so he can hold up the crown [the anger/the belief/the yearning/ the ...]. Heru thinks that he has decided on what he is for them.

"You go up, I go down?"

They let go of one another. Set disappears into the people around him, becoming a part of their voices, their unified chanting and angered cries. Up above the struggle, a falcon soars across the sky, its shrill call turning heads that would otherwise only have time to look at what immediately surrounds them. It is a strange moment as the people in the streets turn their faces to the sky. Involuntarily, their gaze follow the arc of its flight, as its shape lifts something in their hearts. Among the ceaseless fight, it seems to mean something from a language they no longer understand.

"Hey, when was the last time you saw one of those?"

High above the city the falcon soars. Below him, he sees the extent of the protestors, he sees the shape of their power, he sees his uncle among them. He bestows his blessings upon them all.

I explained to one of those "woke" blogs how as a poc, I would rather see Lewis' and other bipoc voices being amplified by drivers spreading those messages in lieu of posting some PR 'I condemn racism and discrimination' post when they don't even experience racism or understand the impact it can have on life. Caught them asking another nonbipoc blogger if I was right, got upset when that blog agreed with me. How are people ending racism if they can't even listen to the opinions bipoc have on it

It's always hilarious when you see most(not all) people who are "disappointed" are white people and they disregard what POCs say. It's how the world works sadly. Don't bother. Enjoy the sunny Thursday. Max will grace the screens today. And just.. everyone will move on by sprint race in austria.

God... imagine how all those people who are losing all that energy on A VERY IMPORTANT SUBJECT online will realize that social media posts do not end racism and do not bring justice to a sad world. Will be a shock, I reckon.
