Darfur Allegory

More about the book

The book critiques historical narratives surrounding the humanitarian crisis in Darfur, focusing on the flawed racial and ethnic divisions between "Arab" northerners and "African" southerners. Rogaia Abusharaf, a Sudanese anthropologist, examines how these pseudoscientific concepts, rooted in colonialism, have shaped media portrayals and international responses to the civil war. By combining anthropological analysis with insights into Sudanese politics, the work highlights the complexities of activism in Darfur and the impact of language in either exacerbating or alleviating conflict.
