On this day, 18 December 2010, following the self-immolation of street vendor Mohamed Bouazizi, protesters took to the streets in Tunisia. The protests ballooned into a far-reaching social movement which eventually achieved the overthrow of the dictator Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. It also sparked a wave of uprisings across the Middle East and North Africa, which became known as the Arab Spring. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/1610546865797124/?type=3
