Wadah Khanfar

A beautiful talk by Director General of Al Jazeera, Wadah Khanfar, on the technological empowerment of young people leading to democratic revolutions.

Among other things, he talks about the recent history of reform in North Africa and the Middle East and the confidence the presence of journalists reporting revolutionary acts gives to protesters.

He also asserts, in the questions with Chris Anderson after the talk, that these revolutions and uprisings have been the most significant event Al Jazeera has ever covered.
