May Allah free Sudan of oppression. I was introduced to Sudan through Leila Aboulela’s books. She is my favorite writer. I also know an artist, Khalid AbdurRahman, who paints Sudanese landscapes. Seeing his work alongside Aboulela’s novels makes me feel like I’m there. Insha’Allah I hope to be able to visit one day.
Yassmin, Thank you for the book recommendations. I will look them up! The Kingdom of Kush is what I think about when I think of Sudan. The queen who (may) have visited Solomon? Along withl that you have shared and have written, including Laylas journey home. I wish I could pour water from your lands over your hands and to soothe your heart. I'm trying hard to not sink into despair or actually try harder not to numb out from the world.
I'm so sorry this is happening. When I started doing stand-up comedy about 15 years ago I met Sudanese comic. He's hilarious, kind and an outspoken advocate for social justice. Thank you for posting the pictures. I'll admit most of what I imagine Sudan to look like comes from news reports in times of conflict, which does not reflect the beauty of the country. I've added both books to my Dymocks cart for my next order, thanks for the recommendations.
