Government has shut down all telecommunications access for the 4th day in a row and is still in the process of containing the violence and uprising. The march today will draw all types of organizations and classes of people from all walks of life. Freedom Square is where the demonstrators wanted to congregate, however, police intervened and escalated the uprising. This uprising was orchestrated via Social Media and well educated students who are ready to stand against corruption, unemployment and the authoritarian government.
Media has been shut out with no access to this location so that there are no pictures taken at what could possibly happen during the demonstration. In addition to Egypt's educated middle class, this movement has brought several heavy hitters such as Nobel Prize winner Mohammad Al Baredi and the most powerful Islamic brotherhood and activist together to stand against the common barriers that has plagued the Egyptian Nation. More to come on this story.
