Topics
Anne Soy: 作为非洲资深记者，我观察到肯尼亚爆发了大规模的反政府抗议活动，起因是民众对政府的不满以及对去年类似抗议中丧生者的纪念。警察对抗议者采取了强硬手段，甚至关闭了媒体的直播信号。尽管抗议活动主要集中在内罗毕，但也蔓延到了其他城市。这些抗议者以年轻人为主，他们没有明确的领导者，自发地组织起来表达诉求。 Protester: 我作为一名肯尼亚的抗议者，走上街头是为了我的孩子们的未来而战。我认为我们的国家没有朝着正确的方向发展，尤其是在教育方面。我希望能够为肯尼亚争取一个更美好的未来。同时，我也坚信肯尼亚属于上帝，我们需要彻底改革这个国家的体制，不能仅仅满足于某一个人的辞职，而是要彻底改变整个系统。
