You Have Not Yet Been Defeated is a book that consists of a collection of writings published in 2021 by Egyptian political activist, software developer, and prisoner of conscience Alaa Abd El-Fattah. The book covers the period from 2011 to 2021, bringing together essays, tweets, letters, and personal reflections smuggled out of Egyptian prisons. The translation was done by an anonymous collective of supporters, and the book was published by Fitzcarraldo Editions.
The collection documents Abd el-Fattah's experiences during a decade of uprisings and repression in Egypt. This includes themes such as the Arab Spring, the failure of revolutionary movements, digital activism, and global solidarity.
