Quote: When I returned home, I saw the news was reporting violence, harm and destruction. I realised that this was the complete opposite to what I had experienced earlier that day. I saw people standing up for their rights, music being played with instruments, and if anyone was being disrespectful, it was a handful of angry students, or the police themselves.

Quote: The ubiquity of the camera phone among the young has turned every protester into a citizen reporter, capable of accessing images that instantly refute the claims of the authorities. Those same handheld devices allow the protesters to communicate so swiftly that they are able to avoid being corralled by the police and unlawfully detained. They know their rights because they can Google them.
