Death of Turkish teenager awakens dormant Gezi spirit | ROAR Magazine
"Yesterday, following the death of Berkin Elvan, the Gezi spirit that
had been lying dormant inside us for the past months was sparked again.
All the logical arguments people had against mass protests went out of
the window. People are protesting, knowing all too well they will be
gassed, attacked, possibly injured and maybe even killed. A 15-year-old
boy did this." #BerkinElvanÖlümsüzdür
The death of 15-year-old Berkin
Elvan, who spent 269 days in coma after being hit by a teargas canister
last June, is sparking renewed protests in Turkey.
