Egypt has had the same president for over 30 years and he refused to give up his power until it finally came to an end do to a protest that started January 2011. people acted with no violence and they got what they wanted

Egypt

 One of the things that I have learned from teachers since I was little is that history repeats itself. Trough out history there has been good and bad leaders that have taken us trough happiness or have led us to the need of revolution or rebellion for what is fair.Egypt has had the same president for the past 30 years and on january 25 of 2011 the people from egypt decided to stand for what is right and made a revolutionary protest against president Hosni Mubarak. President Mubarak took egypt trough a strike of terror and economic disintegration. People needed a change and they decided to step up and be the mature ones and organized a peaceful protest like the kind that Muhandas Gandhi promoted during his life time, fighting terror with peace.

Homophobic stand up

    People who like people of the same sex are often forced to hide their sexual orientations because they are afraid of what society things of them and when they are brave enough sometimes they end up being bullied by a person who hates their way of living and do not approve it in the film people defended the guy by reacting in a peaceful stand up against the bullies to support him because they what to show him that he is not alone and that there is people who are willing to stand for him and others like him and defend them. Their sexual orientation makes them different from what people expect but they still have equal rights and don't deserve to be bullied around and live with fear. I believe that the video Stand Up was directed to the people who are there and decide to do nothing rather than to the bullies or the gay people.
