Seminar & Pamphlet Launch: Sudan’s Revolutionary Movements Research (7 Nov)

JOIN US on 7 November for the launch of “Sudan’s Revolutionary and Popular Movements: A Research Report”, a pamphlet by MENA Solidarity offering an in-depth analysis of Sudan’s revolutionary movements, the forces of counter-revolution, and the enduring strength of grassroots resistance.
The seminar will explore the pivotal role of strikes, women’s organising, and neighbourhood networks in the struggle for freedom, peace, and justice. It will also examine the impact of imperialism and the vital importance of international solidarity in connecting Sudan’s revolution to broader global struggles against oppression and exploitation.

Six Years Since the 2019 Sudanese Massacres: The War on Revolution Continues

Today marks six years since the bloody massacres unleashed by Sudan’s counter-revolutionary forces, led by the country’s two main militias—the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). 

On June 3, 2019, these state-backed death squads launched a coordinated assault on peaceful revolutionaries camped outside military headquarters in Khartoum and in 13 other cities across Sudan. Thousands were killed, women and men were raped, bodies were burned, and many were tied by their legs and thrown—still alive—into the Nile. It was a calculated act of terror, designed to crush a revolutionary movement that had dared to challenge decades of military dictatorship and capitalist exploitation.
