Mohamed Bouazizi is a name that few know. Just a apple seller in a Tunisian market refusing to accept corruption any more. He set himself on fire as protest when the authorities refused to do the right thing. What followed this was the Arab Spring where oppressed people stood up and said that their voices should be heard. You may never have heard of him but his actions sparked a revolution. One man who stood and said enough is enough. One man that changed the world.
