Senegal: Fire and Riot Time
The routine at these almost daily rallies goes like this: crowds gather, including local activists like Y’en a marre and the civil society activists in M23. They chat, rail against incumbent President Abdoulaye Wade, and exchange the latest news until one or more of the opposition candidates running against Wade arrives. Youssou N’dour often shows up as well.
