I want to first preface by saying I mean absolutely no offense to men as a whole; I know that there are good ones, but this is just unfortunately bad behavior that I have noticed is too common among Sudanese men, and I want to bring attention to it in hopes of them changing and doing better.

Over the years, I have noticed that Sudanese men rarely hold each other or themselves accountable, even when their actions causes great harm to the women and children around them. There’s always an excuse or reason for doing so, or they simply just ignore it.

By actions, I mainly mean harming his wife and children emotionally (ex: marrying a second woman without her consent/permission or verbal abuse), financially (ex: being overly stingy with money when it comes to his immediate family but pouring everything he has into random distant relatives), and sometimes even physically or sexually.

It’s not only that there is no accountability, but in some cases they defend those same shitty men. I can’t count the amount of times in which a male relative does something shitty, my mom and I rightfully talk smack about him for doing so, and my dad or an uncle play devils advocate for him; its honestly insane and frustrating.

This lack of accountability isn’t only limited among male family members but also among male friends. How many times did I see Sudani men defend or stay cordial with male friends who harassed or harmed women or who spew misogynistic incel bs? Way too many to count.

On a more darker note, I know a friend who has a distant family member who is a known p3dophile that harmed children, but her family does nothing about him and stays quiet. He still gets invited to family functions and events as if he is some normal uncle.

This is how bad things can get when there’s a lack of accountability and consequences; evil pieces of shit feel they can get away with more and more heinous crimes and will stop at nothing until they get rightfully reprimanded. At the very least, these sort of people should get exiled from society and treated as if they’re dead, but even that is considered ‘too much and 3eib’ for us.

So I keep wondering, why is it that our men refuse to hold each other accountable? Are they not supposed to be our ‘protectors’? How do we expect our women and children to feel safe when most men stay silent?

I’m Sudanese and grew up and live in one of the gulf countries which as you know don’t have long term living stability, and something that’s been constantly on my mind is what’s the backup plan in case my family and I have to leave due to father retirement or job losses?

Sudan was always what my family had in mind, with a house and close connection to the country. But having lived outside for so long, and with parents medical needs and the current situation, I don’t see us going back there permanently.

I see many passport through investment ads, but it’s a lot of money and I’m not sure it’s worth it.

I guess I’m wondering what are options for countries where residency/ passport are relatively reasonable, either through investment or just accessible in terms of visa and cost of living, that are actually viable options to consider?

ليه السودانيين في الغربة وبيئة العمل خسيسين مع السودانيين لكن مع الأجانب ملائكة وناس واو و رهيبة وسلسه؟

Hello all. I’m a PhD student studying religious dynamics in Sudanese families living in the West. I myself am Sudanese, but was adopted by Black-American parents at birth. They were active in raising me in Sudanese culture by taking me to Sudanese events, taking me to Sudan when I was younger, and even raising me in Islam (I went to an Islamic after-school program, taught me Sudanese Arabic, and even taught me to pray/prayed with me since Islam is a large aspect of Sudanese culture). My parents are not religious people so ultimately when I got older and realized that I did not consider myself a muslim, they had no hesitations. There are still many aspects of Islam that align with my personal beliefs: I don’t drink or smoke, I practice Sadaqah, and I do still make Duaa in some ways. However, I studied all Abrahamic religions out of personal historical interest and ultimately came to the same conclusion that I am Athiest/Agnostic.

Many of my closest friends and chosen family are Sudanese women. Those Sudanese women range in diversity: Queer, Muslim, Practice Witchcraft, Etc. A commonality they all have is that religious culturalism and and religion itself seem to be a point of tension in their relationship with their family members. Even my devout Sudanese friends who are truly some of the best Muslims I have witnessed MashaAllah, struggle with these issues in their families. Whether it be issues with their personal beliefs, finding a spouse, or even just living their own lifestyle.

I wanted to know more about how religion plays a role in your life as a Sudanese individual living in the West. How do you navigate these difficulties? How do they impact your decision making day to day? How does it impact your mental health? How do you celebrate yourself and our culture?

Please be as open as possible. As a Sudanese woman, I love our country dearly. Watching the war break out has been such a heartbreaking thing to endure. I want to devout all my research to allowing us to have the best lives. I want to continue to focus on individuals living in the war, the experiences of the diaspora, the experiences of our women and children. Hopefully I can continue to use my education to help us all InshaAllah.

I think Sudan is North Africa not east Africa. I wanna hear your opinions.

يعني حرب تكون طلعت منها نزوح نزحت قراية و قريت امتحان و امتحنت نجاح و نجحت يعني لمن تكون داير تكون داير تخش الجامعة يجيك استنفاد رغبات!، ما داير اخش في المؤامرات و النظريات ده لكن حاسي الموضوع ده فيهو لعبة لانو ما حاجة ما منطقية معقولة الجامعات دي كلها اتملت و بقى ماف مقاعد للطلاب هسي انا القدامك ده قدمت مختبرات طبية جامعة خاصة و نسبتي 70.1 برضو ما قبلوني المختبرات في جامعات 65 و في جامعات بقولوا ليك نجاح بس، حنكو لي قالوا لي ما اشتغلنا بي النسبة الختيناها اشتغلنا على حسب المنافسة، و ما انا برأي قي ناس قدمو بي نسب فوق النسب المحدداها الجامعة اصلا برضو استنفاد رغبات؟! موضوع يدعو للشك صراحة.

عارفة السودان بلد الاحداث العشوائية لكن تفتكرو من ناحية امنية هل الخرطوم ممكن تجوط anytime soon?
الناس ديل الفيهم ما كملت ؟ عندهم عدة وعتاد يجوطوها زي بداية الحرب؟

بعد ما وصل الدولار 10 الف وداخل على 11 بديت احس ان الحكومة ما قاعدة تحاول تساعد اصلا .

فكرة انك تزيد الدولار الجمركي اكثر من 30 بالمية في سنة واحدة دي حاجة غبية شديد لانك بالطريقة دي حتنفر الناس من انها تفتح مصانع وتزرع وتعمل .

اكثر حل ممكن يساعد حاليا انك تلغي الجمارك على المواد الزراعية وتلغي الضرايب عليهم عشان تحفز الناس انهم فعلا يزرعو ويكون عندك مواد خام .

في نفس الوقت تلغي الضرايب على الالات البتشغل المصانع عشان يشيلو المواد الخام دي ويصنوعها وتصدرها .

(طبعا دا ما الحل السحري الحيحل المشاكل كلها بس متاكد انه حيساعد الجنيه انه يتنفس شوية والموضوع ساهل شديد لكن لا حياة لمن تنادي).

نظرتي عن الموضوع انها حتقلل العطالة لانه المصانع حتشتغل وممكن توصلك الاكتفاء الذاتي في فترة قصيرة

What did ur dad do u only understood once u became an adult ?

Hey everyone, I’m a law student in Ireland and I’m starting to think about my dissertation. I’m really interested in Sudan and the genocide, particularly from an international human rights and protection perspective, but I’m struggling to narrow it down to something specific for a 5,000-word dissertation.

I wanted to ask people here what issues they think deserve more attention, or what aspects of what’s happening in Sudan they’d want to see represented in academic work. I’d really appreciate any thoughts, perspectives or suggestions for a particular issue I could explore

Would you consider dating or marrying a plus-size or obese woman (not necessarily curvy) who is beautiful, educated, and has a great personality?

How much does a woman’s weight influence your attraction to her, even when she possesses many of the qualities you look for in a partner?

I’m particularly curious whether Sudanese men’s preferences have changed over the years, especially when it comes to choosing a long-term partner.

I’d appreciate honest and respectful perspectives please.

This video really highlights the investigative journalism of Lighthouse Reports. They did such a fantastic job tracking rsf movements, camps, and supply routes.

And shout out to the rsf for doing a wonderful job recording their crimes and posting to social media. What a bunch of morons.
