Democracy Speaks: Civil Disobedience in Myanmar
Manage episode 367279266 series 3488105
On February 1st, the Myanmar military raided and detained the country’s top officials—including democratically elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi, President U Win Myint, and other senior figures from the National League for Democracy party—sparking protests that are still ongoing. Our hosts Sylvia and Janrey, along with producer Cynthia, spoke with activists and scholars to understand what’s happening in Myanmar, the historical context, and how Burmese Americans and the international community are responding to the coup. We also discuss the role of social media in the #CivilDisobedience movement, as well as what those of us not in Myanmar can do beyond sharing social media posts.
