Collective members discuss the geopolitical context behind the war and famine in Sudan. Dr. Elamin is an Assistant Professor of Anthropology and African Studies at the University of Toronto. She is currently writing a book, tentatively titled: Stratified Enclosures: Land, Capital and Empire-making in central Sudan which focuses on Saudi and Emirati land grabs and community resistance to land dispossession in the agricultural Gezira region of Sudan currently under siege by the RSF.
Dr. Elamin is also a member of the Sudan Solidarity Collective which has been supporting local emergency response rooms in the face of a largely absent international aid community and civilian state. The collective has been doing political education around the war in Sudan and is organizing around different issues affecting Sudanese people in Canada and beyond, including immigration policies.
