Free Sudan
2025-12-14 13:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Amsterdam) | GROND, Bijdorpstraat 1, Amsterdam, 1096AP, Netherlands
With a Sudanese lunch by Mohamed Alnoor, a performance by The Black Pharaohs and the screening of ‘What’s next?’ by SSMG.
The massacre of hundreds of Sudanese civilians after the Darfur city of El Fasher was captured by the rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF) is the latest chapter in a brutal conflict that has killed more than 150.000 people over the past two and a half years. We need this horrific war to end, and Sudan needs your support and awareness. Therefor we will organize ‘Free Sudan’ – an event in which we celebrate the rich Sudanese culture, in which we mourn all the victims and in which we will inform you about the situation in Sudan.
We will start our gathering with a traditional Sudanese lunch prepared by Mohamed Alnoor. Then ‘The Black Pharaohs’ will perform traditional dance and music from the Nuba Mountains area. The performers will explain the meaning of the different songs and dances. A stop motion animation titled ‘What’s next?’ made by SSMG (Sudanese Stop Motion Group) will be screened. This animation takes you along the route of fleeing Darfur towards Uganda.
We hope you will join us in solidarity!
