Tawakul Karman Awarded Nobel Peace Prize

Call for Peace
"I am very, very happy about this," said Karman of her Nobel Peace Prize. "I give the prize to the youth of revolution in Yemen and the Yemeni people." Karman, who is known by many in Yemen as the "mother of the revolution," received the award along with Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf and Liberian activist Leymah Gbowee. In this photograph, she receives a call shortly after the recipients of the prize were announced while inside her tent at a protesters' camp in Sana'a on Oct. 7, 2011.
