During the Libyan revolution and operating under the name “Numidia”, El-Henshi helped tell the world of the violence and tumult of the revolution and the realities of living under the Qadddafi regime, despite grave personal risk. She became a symbol of solidarity and a model of courage to many in Libya.

Numidia was the name of the ancient Berber or Amazigh kingdom in North Africa and was chosen because of her own Amazigh heritage. [/restrict]
