In this lesson plan, developed by Brown University's Choices Proogram, students explore the role of graffiti in the Egyptian Revolution. Students consider the potential impact of graffiti on a larger scale and the ways in which it has been censored. The lesson includes videos and a pre-made PowerPoint presentation to support class discussion. It concludes with a broader discussion about graffiti and asks students: Is graffiti art or vandalism?

The core objectives of this lesson plan are that students will:

1. Assess the role of graffiti in political protest.
2. Use a short video to analyze the relevance of graffiti during the Egyptian revolution (January 2011-present).
3. Articulate opinions on graffiti and censorship.
