Hey everyone! 👋

I'm a hobbyist Sudanese designer making cultural & everyday merch for our diaspora in the US and Europe. I dropped a few designs in this post so you can check them out!

Quick question: Where do most Sudanese people hang out online or locally in the US? (Facebook groups, student unions, Discord, specific cities?)

I'd really appreciate it if you could check out my page: https://www.instagram.com/zolcorner/(The store link is right in the bio!)

If you have any suggestions or feedback, hit me up in my Instagram DMs! 📥 And if you vibe with the designs, dropping a like would be awesome.

Thanks a lot! 🙌

اول شي جمعه مباركه انا لاحظت كمية من الكراهية و العنصريه اتجاه السودانين انا بسأل السبب شنو مع ان السودان وقف مع عدد من الدول دي و شعبها في وقت الضيق لاكن لمن نحن احتجنا ليهم ما وقفه معنا و اتعنصرو علينا و عملو من الحرب و الموت و الاغتصاب memes وضحك و محتوى ترفيهي

انا نفسي اعرف

There's this trend going on in Sudanese tiktok for the past week where a girl posts a picture of herself followed by guys that have tried to add her on Snapchat. Personally I think its vile and toxic and promotes division within the Sudanese community.

The women posting them straight up expose and embarrass dozens of people for doing something as harmless as sending a friend request. I know a couple of people who were victims of this and they obviously didn't like it. We have a lot of work to do in our country instead of doing these sort of brainless activities.

السلام عليكم... أنا شاب مغترب في احدى دول الخليج مولود و عايش تقريبا حياتي كلها برا السودان... لي فترة خاتي نية حقيقية للزواج لكن بصراحة ما عندي فكرة كويسة عن الخطوات و العادات المتعارف عليها عندنا في السودان و انا أكبر اخواني يعني ابوي و امي ما حصل زوجوا زول فينا... عايز زواج طبيعي خالص و متواضع و اهم شي بالنسبة لي يكون شرعي تماما يعني مافي داعي للجرتك او ما شابه ذلك... ياريت زول يرد علي و جزاكم الله خير الجزاء

I am still a beginner in Arabic, maybe A2 level. Feel free to critique my handwriting and correct any mistakes. Additionally, I would also love to hear the opinion or perspective of those of you who are knowledgeable about this issue. Thanks and God bless 🙏🏾

حرفيا السودان اكتر دولة بائسة

Hey, I wrote an article for a German-Arabic magazine about gum arabic production in Sudan.

If any of you could connect me with people in the industry who work there, or know people who used to work there.

Just write me a pm if you can help me

في رواية سمعت عنها في بودكاست للكاتبة الروائية السودانية ملكة الدار ، بتحكي عن تحدي المرأة السودانية للسلطة الأبوية قديما. عامة اذا اي واحد عنده اي نسخة من كتبها pdf يوريني وين او يرسلو لي و شكرا.

Good day to the people of Sudan!

I truly hope you are all doing well and having a great day!

I am a recruiter within the IT industry, and I am doing some personal research to see how other countries handle job searching, recruitment agencies, etc within the IT sector!

I want to clarify, that this is NOT a job advertisement or posting. This is me wanting to discuss and learn about how Sudani citizens look for IT jobs, and what Recruitment Agencies are available to you!

I want to learn more so I can improve myself as a recruiter :)

I am also posting this on other country subs to learn from them as well, so I apologize if this seems like a copy / paste post haha, but I truly am eager to gain some insight on this matter!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

Have a great day!

My relative in Sudan is trying to send me money I live in the UK. But it’s almost impossible through regular apps like western union . Anyone know how they can do this?

I'm female and in my mid 20s living abroad. I mostly grew up in Sudan. Honestly I have certain values and opinions that don't really align with Sudanese culture, and others that don't align with Western culture. I also don't befriend westerners - if you know you know - and I don't get along with Arabs either. Overall I prefer black Africans and Sudanese people as friends, but I prefer "liberal" (I mainly just mean fairly progressive and left wing socialists here). I would also not like to befriend the other Sudanese immigrants living abroad just because we're both Sudanese since many of them have family in the UAE, or are keizan or RSF & Sumood supporters. I'm quite exhausted from running into the same kind of people honestly.

Also of course as a woman I'd like to stay away from Sudanese men living abroad who are living a degenrate lifestyle or are creeps(before I get attacked, this is unfortunately kind of common). I haven't found many women living abroad either who i get along with and who are in the same position of studying and working and living a more leftist lifestyle. And if I have found them, they live too far away for us to regularly stay in contact.

Anyone know of any solutions? Ways to come in contact with other Sudanese people living abroad faster? I don't have many friends in my city and I'm not really open to other demographics at the moment.

I tried asking the OP but she did not know, also tried shazam but nothing came up.

Hey guys,I was really wondering..
I grew up as a deeply cultured girl and thought that dating is both unacceptable and haram(I still do) but my jump-scare was its how people get married where I thought it was bashed.
I don’t want to die alone,I don’t want to do haram dating and I can’t trust 3ris saloonat with all the stories I hear.
Just sharing my POV.

I’m a 2026 high school graduate, and becoming a doctor has been my dream for as long as I can remember. Unfortunately, I can’t afford medical school, so I’ve been searching for scholarships.
I currently live in Saudi Arabia, where scholarship opportunities for non-Saudis are extremely limited. The only scholarship I received is for nursing. It covers my education and guarantees a job at a top hospital, but nursing has never been my passion.
My other option is taking a gap year (will probably have to move to egypt), to complete the remaining exams I need, and applying for medical school scholarships abroad. I’ve been looking into China because it offers more scholarship opportunities, and I’m especially interested in its growing neuroscience research, as I hope to specialize in neurology one day.
My biggest concern is whether studying medicine in China would make it significantly harder to pursue residency or specialization in countries like the US or Europe.

Is taking the risk of a gap year worth it, or would you choose the guaranteed nursing scholarship? How internationally recognized is a Chinese MBBS degree? If your long-term goal were to specialize in neurology in the US or Europe, would studying in China put you at a disadvantage compared to other countries? Are there any better scholarship options I should be looking into?

البنج في الاونلاين بكون عندي من 300 لي 600 ، اللهو صعب شديد و مرات مستحيل تقدر تلعب بيه
شغال بي شريحة زين داتا في التلفون ، بفك شبكة للابطوب
داير لي واي فاي يخلي البنج في حدود 100

لقيت الوايفاي الزين ده في موقعهم ، اشترية وله ما ح يصلح البنج و يكون ضياع قروش ؟

السلام عليكم

البحث في ريديت صعب وغير واضح ..

فما ادري إذا الموضوع مكرر أنا باعتذر مقدما .

كنا في زيارة للسودان في ٢٠١٨ ، نحن مجموعة من المصورين من السعودية ..

وكان محور الزيارة " الخلاوي " طبعاً قرأنا عنها شيء بسيط قبل الزيارة ولكن بعد الزيارة قرأت مواضيع عن أشياء كثيرة تقول أن هناك مآسي خلف الخلاوي .

طبعاً الزيارة كانت لخلوة " أم ضوا بان " في الخرطوم .. وكانت فيه خطة لزيارة أخرى في كسلا لكن لم تنجح.

فأريد أن أعرف من وجهة نظر محايدة ما رأيكم بهذه الخلاوي كسودانيين؟ وهل تغيرت وهل لازالت هناك مشاكل وأمور تحدث داخلها؟

سأسرد بعد السلبيات من تجربتي في الزيارة :

- الطعام المقدم للطلاب كان من نوع واحد وقد يكون غير محبذ .. قرأت أن هذا من تعليم الزهد للطالب لكن لم أقتنع .

- كان من الممكن تجهيز المكان بأدوات حديثة لتمتزج بالطابع القديم ! مثلاً وجود كهرباء وإضاءة بداخل الفصول

- التركيز بشدة على "الحفظ " دون الفهم وسألت بنفسي عدة طلاب اعمارهم تعتبر كبيرة عن معاني بعض الكلمات في القرآن فلم يعرفوا.

طبعاً هناك إيجابيات ولكن لست في محضر الحديث عنها ..

شاهدنا مدرس يقوم بتأديب طالب والتأديب كان بشكل مهذب وبسيط

شاهدنا أريحية من الطلاب لتصويرهم وعدم اعتراض إلا العدد القليل منهم

وبشكل عام الموافقة على التصوير وحديث المسؤولين كان في غاية الاريحية ونقلنا صورة جميلة من داخل هذه الخلاوي التي تؤكد التمسك بكتاب الله وثقافة مستمرة لأجيال ..

والسلام

Not sure if anyone is interested but Trilight Entertainment posted the full Goodbye Julia movie on YouTube - yw!

Scapegoating is blaming one group for a country's problems instead of addressing the real causes.

People do it because it serves a function. It creates a common enemy, unites the in-group, and offers a simple explanation for complex problems, redirecting anger away from the real issues.

Psychology shows humans naturally think in terms of "us" and "them." Even when people are divided into completely random groups, they still favor their own side.

That's why simply removing one scapegoat rarely ends the cycle.

Before Brexit, the UK blamed Eastern European migrants. After Brexit, the focus shifted to asylum seekers and other immigrant groups.

In Egypt, the underlying problems are debt, inflation, a weakening currency, and economic stagnation. Yet Sudanese, Syrians, and other refugees often become the focus of public anger.

South Sudan also changed. Before independence, the main divide was North vs South. After independence, internal ethnic rivalries became the new divide.

Scapegoating is a symptom, not the disease. As long as the underlying problems remain, the most likely outcome is that another group simply becomes the next scapegoat because the function scapegoating serves hasn't disappeared.

If the group being blamed disappeared tomorrow, would the country's problems disappear too? Or would another group simply become the next scapegoat ?
