The Takeaway

Nancy Yousef, Egyptian-American professor of English literature at CUNY Baruch was a valuable voice throughout our coverage of the uprising in Egypt. She shares her thoughts and digests all that’s happened over the last three weeks, and her hopes for the future of the country. She says the military probably needs to show its good faith by doing something every few days in support of the people.
