Tunisia: The Birth of A Revolution

On 14 January 2011, Tunisia’s long-time President of 23 years Zine El Abidine Ben Ali was forced to step down after mass protests broke out in the country in the aftermath of Mohammed Bouazizi’s self-immolation. The young fruit seller’s act of despair after being insulted by a local policewoman who confiscated his produce cart sent shockwaves across Tunisia and the Arab world. MEMO's Jehan Alfarra follows the early days of Tunisia's Jasmine Revolution which spread like wildfire inspiring millions in neighbouring Arab countries to revolt against their long-time dictators, giving birth to what became known as the Arab Spring.
