Youth and their use of social media have been cited as leading factors for Egypt's January 25th revolution. But women also came out in force to protest Hosni Mubarak's 30 years of dictatorial power. On this edition, we look at the role women played in the 2011 revolution that successfully brought down a regime. What's been the history of women in the Egyptian liberation movements, and what's the role women will play in politics going forward?
