Blog Article
Once, the streets pulsed with a vibrant energy, a symphony of voices demanding change. Now, a disheartening void hangs heavy in the air.

- Whatever the reason remains to be seen.
- But one thing is certain: the silence on our streets speaks volumes about the fragility of social change.
