Photograph

Just a heads-up, even should a photograph be made publicly available it should NOT be included in the article. Esra'a has stated in one of the interviews cited in the article that she has chosen not to submit photographs so that she won't be harassed for her civil rights work (which would put her in immediate personal danger).

Hyphenated surname

Hi, folks. Esra'a's name, Esra'a Al Shafei, is NOT hyphenated. I have categorically verified this. Please disregard any such misspellings, and treat them as misspellings. To that end, I have moved the article to the proper spelling, and cleaned up the page itself. Cheers! {{u|Checkingfax}} {Talk} 00:51, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Moved content

I've removed:

Social media can spotlight atrocities. On the flipside, social media can stifle activism.^[1] Political activism can also impinge on educational and employment opportunities.^[2] Listening to the wrong music can put a student or employee on the wrong side of the law.

and:

Music can be used to push cultural boundaries.^[3] Technology can challenge cultural traditions too.^[4]

as none if it mentions Al Shafei. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 20:03, 2 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
