This article is about the civil disobedient going in Saudi Arabia
with the women of its country…driving is the crime they are choosing to do. They
are documenting their disobedience all over the web from twitter to YouTube. Its speaks on how this disobedience was ended
on yesterday by police and the pictures show it, also the men protestors that were
on the road fight against this acting of female driving but there is also
support in the streets from women and children and even some women giving them
thumbs up as they drive by. They see this as their brave fight against rules as
the document it with videos, pictures, tweets on post on public websites. They are
doing this to show that there is nothing wrong with a woman driving that it does
not cause any unusual side effects. It tells about the arrest women have endured
for deriving and it being called public disturbance. It tells about this women
campaign that has been going on all week and how they hope it will spark the
view of women driving carefully and with any harm being done across their
kingdom starting this October 23rd all of this is preparation of
this. A women that has pretty much started this all is Ms. Nafjan who is a mother
and a Ph.D. candidate she has received threats to her life for this cause
this whole article is so powerful is the sense that it is empowering
such a simple thing but has so much more meaning to it than anyone who isn’t in
the situation that these women are in. the main thing driving… crazy right but
it is a women driving on the road is Saudi Arabia is seen as taboo, illegal and
even dangerous others and even said to be for the women. One women as seen this
as ridiculous her name is Ms. Nafjan who is well educated and also a mother
herself. She has been through arrest and
even threaten for such a simple thing of taking women out to driving around their
kingdom and some of this most dangerous areas which takes a lot of power to stand
up to men in their country and fight for simple thing. Throughout the week she
and other women that have driven or either she has taken driving have posted
pictures and videos of them driving and standing up against this, they have also
started a movement for a campaign that will start October 26rd called driving with them driving daily . They
only have been stopped by hateful men that call the police which shows that
many other people support this idea of women driving.
