On April 4,2017, the BBC and the Independent in the UK contain posted stories about an on-line protest by Saudi women about the driving ban. Women are filming themselves walking and riding bicycles in silent protest of the law. Note from blogger: this is an vital action as it shows women recording their presence in public places, or which is part of the issue that the opponents contain regarding allowing women to drive. Reclaiming their public space is key in changing this law.

BBC is here: BBC memoir with video embedded.
I can'
t post the embedded video here but you can see it on their link.
