Last Friday, more than three months after former Egyptian president Hosni Mobarak was ousted from power, tens of thousands of protesters poured into downtown Cairo’s Tahrir Square for what they called a "second day of rage." In the largest demonstration since Mubarak stepped down, protesters called for the ruling military to hand over power to a civilian council, draw up a new constitution, and postpone September’s parliamentary election until new political parties can organize. Democracy Now! correspondents Sharif Abdel Kouddous and Nicole Salazar filed this report.

On the first anniversary of Israel’s deadly attack on the Gaza-bound aid ship, the Mavi Marmara, we feature an interview with Ahmet Dogan, the father of Turkish-American, Furkan Dogan, the youngest of nine activists killed in the raid.
Furkan Dogan was born in Troy, New York, and moved to Turkey when he was two years old. An autopsy showed that on May 31, 2010, he was shot at close range, once in the chest and four times in the head.
