Don't stop talking about Sudan
A bloody struggle is raging in Sudan over Sudan's riches, such as gold, gum arabic (a key ingredient in many of the products we use), fertile agricultural land, and power. Other countries, such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE), also covet Sudan's resources, thus perpetuating the conflict.
An evening where we share knowledge, hear stories, eat together, experience music, and dance. Because connection, culture, and togetherness are essential in times of injustice.
Line-up
Ray Fuego , founder of SMIB and frontman of the punk band Ploegendienst, is known for his distinct artistic identity and strong live reputation. His music is raw, direct, and urgent, driven by personal experiences and social observations.
Razeen Khattab fled Sudan for the Netherlands as a child. He often sings about the war in his native country and life between two worlds. In his songs, Razeen blends his Afro-Islamic roots with a pop and punk sound.
Maha is a creative all-rounder. Her punk songs, such as the 2025 single "No Profit," are a form of protest. She's also a model and runs a magazine about activism and the Sudanese diaspora.
Hatoon enchants you with her beautiful voice and dreamy sound. She combines future soul with Sudanese folk, and the result is something truly unique.
This event is a collaboration between Oxfam Novib, Yalla4Sudan, The Black Archives and Melkweg.
