Background

Esra'a Al Shafei, according to her own account, recalls witnessing inhumane treatment of migrant workers as a child. This, along with stereotypical media portrayals of middle eastern youth, prompted her to found the Mideast Youth network.[17] Over time, the network expanded to include other civil rights issues within the Middle East, and branched out to create a diverse range of platforms with a global reach.

In 2006, she started blogging with WordPress.[18] She uses Twitter to communicate, but deletes her Tweets if they go viral.[19]

{{quote|quote=The consequences of attending a metal or rock event is a topic of discussion that's frequently raised on Mideast Youth.

It isn't just young people but professionals who don't want to put their jobs on the line who are worried. Women, in particular, express concern about harming their reputation.

A lot of times you'll find people secretly arranging to attend these groups.[20]|author=Esra'a Al Shafei}}

Her music streaming site is a way for underground music to penetrate isolated markets, such as MENA.[21] Her sites can push information out to the masses that is not found in mainstream outlets.[22] Her blogs become a source for world information.[23] Al Shafei has blogged for CNN and the Huffington Post.[24]
