An archive of resistance: Documenting Egypt's revolution
As videos of the Egyptian regime’s violations during the 2011 and 2013 uprisings were disappearing from social media, the Mosireen Collective launched an online archive to keep the memory of the Arab Spring alive in the minds of citizens.

On Jan. 16, “858: An Archive of Resistance,” a vast collection of videos documenting the 2011 Egyptian Revolution, was launched online.
The videos, 858 hours in total, document police abuse, protests, labor strikes, scenes from the morgue following the death of protesters and many other events that occurred mostly between the years 2011 and 2013.
