Live From the Eqyptian Revolution

Sharif has published a longer piece on the main Democracy Now! website:

Cairo, Egypt—I grew up in Egypt. I spent half my life here. But Saturday, when my plane from JFK airport touched down in Cairo, I arrived in a different country than the one I had known all my life. This is not Hosni Mubarak’s Egypt anymore and, regardless of what happens, it will never be again.

The piece is cross posted on The Nation.
