...they aren't stone buildings
I thought it was something that was made before the protest. I didn't think the protestors would make a statue and an obelisk just for a demonstration.
It’s not a spontaneous protest. It’s an organized commemoration of the Sha (a comprador of US empire) being overthrown 47 years ago.
