Sadr City, Iraq

Sadr City is a small neighborhood in Baghdad that holds over half the city's population. It was the center of Shi'a resistance to Saddam's regime, the Northern epicenter of the two Shi'a intifadahs, and is now the stronghold of Moqtada Al Sadr's Mehdi Army. A Big Noise camera spent a summer in Sadr City and brought back these video clips.

@watmeworry4. Could it be related to the depth of pervasiveness of religion by any chance? A backward obsession with faith over science?
