Video Transcription:
I was forced to leave my country,
running away from death threats.
My name is Dahlia Zeda.
I participated in the Arab Spring.
I participated also in working with policy makers in
my country for years on advancing liberal democratic
values and working on promoting human rights Values, women's rights.
I lead think tank in Egypt.
It's called the Liberal Democracy Institute, and I'm
also the executive director of Meme center for
Middle east and Eastern Mediterranean Studies.
Peace is also a very big value for me.
Allah Akbar Allah.
I was so shook by the brutality
of those who committed these crimes.
It's unimaginable.
It's unthinkable.
The mainstream media that has in the
arab world, they didn't say that.
They attacked the music party.
They raped women, tortured children and
men, and even captured the elderly.
They didn't say any of that.
so I thought I should speak up.
I should tell the people about what I saw.
So I use the platforms I have on social media.
in the next few days after that,
I started to receive death threats, serious death threats, like
people sending me messages on my phone, like, you
don't have much time, we know where you live.
And they send me my address.
And I had to leave all that and go to
a different country, running away from even legal claims filed against me
state sponsored media, which is attacking me, members
of parliament, even who are attacking me.
If I had the opportunity to do
this again, I will do this again.
