A protester attacked.
Now the person shown in the video is considering coming forward. The police appeal has changed the shape of the moment. It is no longer only a widely circulated image. It is also a choice. A hard one. Perhaps.
Her face has travelled further than her name. Her account has not appeared in this report. That absence matters.
The activist group behind the protests now sits close to the question. Not as the person in the video. As the people who know of the appeal. As the people who may hear what follows.
Anderson moves on. Yesterday was great. Today will be brilliant. Laila Cunningham is speaking next. The conference continues.
But the attack does not stay behind the speech. It follows the people inside it. The individual. The activist group. The police. Those on the platform.
I remember ruined crops. A thing damaged in public does not become whole because work continues nearby. Different trouble. Same hard ground.
