- The queer revolution in the Middle East: 'One good song can do more than 5,000 protests'
- Date posted

- Description
- Mashrou’ Leila were one of the biggest bands in the Middle East, with a lead singer, Hamed, who is the most prominent openly gay rock star in the Arab world.
Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► http://bit.ly/subscribegdn
Known globally, their gigs were regular sell-out successes until an event at their 2017 Cairo concert changed everything. Playing to 35,000 people, the band looked out at a sea of swaying flickering lights, including an Egyptian fan flying a rainbow flag. This simple act would later be described by authorities as ‘inciting debauchery’, and ultimately catapulted the band, the fan and others into a tragic series of events.
While this violent repression against the LGBTQ+ community in the Middle East mirrors a global trend, creatives on the frontline are unified in their resistance

- Bitcoin requires vast amounts of electricity to facilitate its transactions around the globe. More than twice the energy usage per year of Apple, Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Amazon combined.

Taliban officials have claimed the ban is temporary, but said the same thing the last time they were in power more than two decades ago. Back then, girls of all ages never returned to school.
Today, much has changed in the country, and a new generation of girls and women possess radically different aspirations than they were previously allowed to hold. An anxious population waits to see to what extent the Taliban has changed, too.

The crux of the matter lies in the way our global supply chain works, and how companies have come to rely on a unique system of efficiency, dubbed 'just in time', which developed in Japan in the late 1960s and early 70s. Josh Toussaint-Strauss explores how the prevalence of just in time supply systems are contributing to a global supply chain crisis

There were protests against injustice, including those about violence against women in the UK. It was also a year of global political shifts, not least in Afghanistan. Meanwhile, it was a year of sporting inspiration in Euro 2020, the Olympics, and Emma Raducanu's improbable US Open victory. Here are some of the highlights of our journalism over that time.
