Here's Hind Makki's thread on the photo of the woman on the car, leading the protest. The photo has come viral and 'iconic' in terms of its symbolisms. There's also a piece from CNN. The 22-year-old activist in that iconic photo says she chanted from atop a car to declare, 'Sudan is for all'. The photo is by Lana Haroun, although judging by the surroundings (and numerous cellphones), several other versions will also emerge.

Mohamed Satti, Reaction, Songs of freedom: how music brought political change to Sudan "During the days in early April, when the revolution gathered steam, the government expelled most international media outlets. So it was up to the citizens to capture the uprising on cellphones.
