Voices from the Square, Part 20 with Elia Haber for The Beirut Banyan, bringing conversations directly from Martyrs Square.
Elia speaks to Chantal Bou Akl - 34-year old researcher projects coordinator, and Nay El Rai, 32-year old university instructor and researcher.
Chantal and Nay share their thoughts on five weeks of demonstrating and why they're still returning to downtown Beirut. They also reflect on protestors' calls for political reform and preventing parliament from carrying out legislation surrounding the proposed amnesty law.
