ABOUT THIS EPISODE

This podcast episode is an interview led by WesSmellGas with researcher and activist Sara Abbas. It offers an account of the situation in Sudan, before, during and after the 2018-2019 uprising. In the aftermath of the escalation of violence in El Fasher in late 2025, thousands of people in Sudan have been subjected to mass killing and forced displacement, in addition to sexual violence. To many of the people who took part in the recent uprisings, this is nothing less than a counter-revolutionary war aimed to further racial capitalist interests and suppress people's freedom dreams. This episide not only focuses on the recent violence and destruction which affects the broader region, but also amplifies the resistance of people in Sudan, past and present.
