Five years on from the June 3rd massacres, Sudan remains mired in war, exposing the deep ties between the state and global capitalism. State violence against revolutionaries highlights the lengths the ruling class will go to maintain power. The 2019 massacres and ongoing war are manifestations of capitalism’s inherent violence. Despite this, the 2018 revolution achieved significant milestones, including grassroots organising and the toppling of dictator Omar al-Bashir. This demonstrates the Sudanese people’s resilience and determination to shape their own future, inspiring revolutionary movements worldwide.
