Youth-led protests: Why are so many young Africans taking to the streets?

This week the 77 Percent is focusing on Kenya's youth-led protests: What has happened, where are we now and where could it go from here? In our Street Debate we hear from protesters and discuss why the police used such excessive force against unarmed civilians. We take a look back at Nigeria's 2020 #EndSARS protests and analyze why security forces react the way they do. And lastly we go to South Africa to meet former #FeesMustFall activists who reflect on the success and failures of their movement almost a decade later.
