Elamin speaks with guest host Alex Guye ahead of an event at the Halifax Central Library.
“This war is not a civil war, it's a counter-revolutionary war against civilians. It's a war of military elites against the entire civilian population,” says Sudanese organizer Nisrin Elamin. Sudan is currently experiencing the largest mass displacement event in the world today. Thousands are dead and famine is “almost everywhere” in the country. In this episode of “Movement Memos,” Elamin, organizer Yusra Khogali, and host Kelly Hayes discuss the historical and political roots of the violence, how global powers are fueling the conflict, and the revolutionary efforts of grassroots mutual aid networks on the ground. This episode unpacks what the world is missing about Sudan's struggle and explains how you can act in solidarity with those fighting for their lives and their freedom.

In this episode of 'Don't Call Me Resilient', Nisrin Elamin, Assistant Professor of Anthropolgy and African Studies at the University of Toronto, paints a grim picture of life in Sudan today. She says the current war, which exploded on April 15, 2023, is devastating both rural and urban communities. Elamin also identifies small pockets of hope. In the absence of a properly functioning government and looming famine, grassroots groups are stepping in to help people survive.Since last April, Sudanese people in both rural and urban areas have been caught in the middle of a violent conflict between two warring military regimes - the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) and the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF).Human rights groups say the RSF and allied militias are responsible for large-scale massacres targeting specific ethnic groups in the capital Khartoum and the region of Darfur.As a result of the war, more than 10 million people have been displaced from their homes, making Sudan home to the largest displacement of people in the world. A new report by a Dutch think tank says that if no changes occur on the ground, 2.5 million Sudanese people could die of famine by September.Elamin explains how the current war is part of a long legacy of corrupt military rule and land dispossession that have plagued Sudan since its independence from British rule in 1956. She also urges Canadians to pay attention to Canada's possible role in Sudan's war. "This is big business," she says. In fact, she says Canadians are likely complicit in most wars occurring in 2024. "We are complicit...through our pension funds, our university endowments, some of our personal investments. This is big business. I think a lot of people aren't paying attention to what's happening in Sudan because they feel like it's so far removed and it has nothing to do with them. But that is a lie. It does, and it might be closer than you think it is. "Credits Associate producer, Ateqah Khaki and freelance associate producer, Latifa Abdin are co-producers of this episode.

Who can force a nationwide conversation about musical genre for a whole damn month? Beyoncé can. And I knew I wanted to be several weeks into that discussion — and several weeks into my own relationship with the album — before I dove in myself. I also knew I wanted to talk about it with someone else with a similarly deep and ambivalent relationship with country music: the good, the white, the cold-beer-nation-building, all of it. So I was absolutely thrilled when Elamin Abdelmahmoud agreed to come on the show and engage in what he calls one of his favorite hobbies: “talking about Beyoncé at length.” You're gonna love the show and you're gonna love Elamin and it's gonna make you think a lot more about Cowboy Carter, even if it's not (yet) your fav. I can't wait for your thoughts (and to argue more about Jolene in the comments).

Welcome to Season 2 of Ukombozi.The Sudanese Revolution of 2018-2019 was a bubbling up of many movements all at once. As Hamid Khalahfallah, one of our guests here, says: "It was many transitions all at once"––a political, cultural and spiritual one. And then it ended, first with another coup in 2021, and now with brutal fighting between two parts of the regime. Here we discuss the conflict, but in also the place of social movements in Sudanese society. One of the reasons we are where we are today is because of the enormous inequalities that Sudanese society faces––since independence in 1956 and before, the country has been ruled by a narrow elite from the Nile Valley, excluding the peripheries and lower classes. Social movements inside and outside of Khartoum have been mobilizing against this.We have with us two fantastic Sudanese activists and scholars to discuss this. Hamid Khalafallah is a program officer for the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance; he spoke with us in his personal capacity. He has been active with various civil resistance groups in Sudan, promoting democracy and advocating for human rights. Nisrin Elamin is assistant professor of anthropology and African studies at the University of Toronto. She studies rural movements and resistance to Saudi and Emirati land investments in central Sudan.
On April 15, fighting broke out in Sudan between the army and a powerful para-military group known as the RSF. Khartoum is the site of much of this fighting and its citizens have been fleeing amid a humanitarian crisis. Three scholars speak about the crisis for this episode, which first aired as a webinar called "Sudan: Insight into Current Events."You'll hear from Mai Hassan, associate professor of political science at MIT, Nisrin Elamin, assistant professor of anthropology at the University of Toronto, and Deen Sharp, visiting LSE fellow in human geography & environment at the London School of Economics and Political Science. The conversation was moderated by Mostafa Minawi. Thank you to the Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies at Cornell University and its Critical Ottoman and Post-Ottoman Studies initiative for hosting the original event and sharing the recording with us and our listeners.

Initiators then define deliverables as milestones and split up the total amount of funding between their milestones (e.g., 10% for the first milestone, 30% for the second milestone, 40% for the third milestone, etc.).https://www.imbue.network/Twitter:Imbue Network - @ImbueNetworkSam Elamin - @samelaminCrypto Unplugged Social MediaTwitter:Doc - @DrCrypto47Oz - @AskCryptoWealthCrypto Unplugged - @crypto_unplugdCrypto Unplugged YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiNxD56lZUk8XpCgy8h-XGACrypto Unplugged on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/crypto_unplugged/Crypto Unplugged Telegram Community Channel:https://t.me/cryptounpluggedSubsocial Network:Crypto Unplugged - https://app.subsocial.network/5191Doc - https://app.subsocial.network/5180Pinterest:https://www.pinterest.co.uk/cryptounpluggedukLinktree:https://linktr.ee/cryptounpluggedFor crypto and Bitcoin articles on technical and fundamental analysis, project reviews on altcoins, and more visit the Crypto Unplugged Website:https://cryptounplugged.co.ukShoStart your Crypto Journey with Ledger Ledger's the smartest way to secure, buy, exchange, and grow your crypto assets.

Two years ago, things started changing ... quickly. They haven't stopped since. Yes, eventually the pandemic will end, but the normal we hoped would return is long gone. After decades of unprecedented stability, especially in places like Canada, many people have simply never experienced a world in constant flux. It's a funny feeling, and one we're still learning how to cope with. So how should we grapple with the new world we inhabit?GUEST: Elamin Abdelmahmoud, culture writer at Buzzfeed News, host of Pop Chat from CBC podcasts. Elamin's book, Son of Elsewhere, is available for pre-order.

This week we're re-releasing one of our fave episodes from May 2021. You may know our guest today, Jamie Loftus, from one of her many podcast endeavors. My Year in Mensa, The Bechdel Cast, Lolita and most recently The Aack Cast. This week she stops by to share her fave pods and talk about her deep dive into Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita. What do you think of when you hear Lolita? Heart-shaped sunglasses? Lana del Rey? Romance? Critics have called it a great love story. But look deeper into Vladimir Nabokov's novel and you might instead see a cautionary tale full of predatory behavior told by an unreliable narrator. So why does that name still conjure images of love and lollipops? You might remember host Jamie Loftus from My Year In Mensa (featured on our recommendation chain) or from The Bechdel Cast. She first learned about Lolita at age twelve and has had a complicated relationship with it ever since. That relationship inspired her to create Lolita Podcast, a deep dive into the history and cultural legacy of Lolita. Jamie joins Elamin this week to talk all things Lolita Podcast. And she brought along some of her favorite podcasts to play for us! Featuring: Lolita, You're Wrong About, There are no girls on the internet. As a note before you listen: Jamie and Elamin's conversation touches on mature themes, including child abuse and pedophilia. Please take care while listening.

Alberta Premier Jason Kenney continues to face criticism from all sides for his handling of the pandemic in the prairie province, where doctors are begging for an immediate lockdown as the health care system remains on the brink of collapse. Other premiers and leaders across the country have not faced the same kind of crisis in this fourth wave — how did Alberta get here, and what happens next? Rosie and Elamin also look ahead to what priorities Justin Trudeau is hoping to tackle as his Liberal Party will continue to govern and as Parliament is set to return before the end of the fall. Party Lines is also saying farewell for now — but you can expect to hear Elamin and Rosie back here in your feeds, whenever the next federal election rolls around.
Now that Rosie and Elamin have mostly — mostly — caught up on sleep after Monday's big night, they're ready to look ahead at what happens next. Sure, this new Parliament may look pretty similar to the last, but each federal party now has plenty of questions to grapple with: how do the Liberals move forward with their agenda in another minority? Will the Conservative Party have to re-identify who they are? Will the NDP devise a list of demands they expect the Liberals to fulfill in order to secure their support? And what happens next with the Green Party, and the People's Party of Canada? As Rosie points out, there's an endless stream of stories to follow once an election wraps up — and a new Parliament could very well bring significant change to this country.
This is it: the final stretch before election day. Rosie and Elamin have noticed that the major party leaders have shifted their tone into more negative territory this week — but does that risk alienating voters and reaffirming the worst feelings people have about politics? And what about the risk of people feeling more divided than ever before? Elamin also breaks down some of the biggest differences between what the major parties are putting on the table as they continue to court voters, and Rosie maps out what she'll be watching for, come Monday evening (which could, potentially, be a very late night).
Tonight, five federal party leaders go head-to-head in the sole official English-language debate of this election. Elamin and Rosie lay out the stakes — which are much higher this side of Labour Day — and look at whether tonight's event could have a greater impact than most leaders' debates of the past. The two also take stock of the latest issues to add pressure to party leaders in recent days, including gun control, continued protests over vaccines and carbon pricing. How are the major federal leaders responding, with less than two weeks to go?
We heard you loud and clear: climate change is a top issue for many Party Lines listeners. This week, Rosie and Elamin dive into what the major parties are promising when it comes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and examine how the climate change conversation on this campaign trail is pretty different, compared to 2019. And before they get into that: the two dissect the recent shift in tone, as groups of protesters continue to direct anger over vaccines at Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau. What impact might this have, politically, on the rest of the campaign? Could vaccines and COVID-19 drive the final weeks of this election?
We're two weeks (out of five!) into this federal election campaign, and while parties have so far attempted to push a whole range of issues to the forefront, there was one that dominated the conversation early this week: health care. Rosie and Elamin get to the root of why, exactly, the Liberals and Conservatives appeared at odds over this, and what prescriptions leaders are pitching to improve Canada's health-care system. The two also take a close look at the Conservative Party's recent gains in the polls and what's changed in the last couple of weeks as the Tories aim to make Erin O'Toole a household name.

She started out volunteering at her daughter's preschool, and eventually ended up as the lead preschool teacher. She loved the work, but even after getting her Master's degree, she was still not making the money that she knew she deserved.Today Safaa runs a successful international online preschool for kids ages 3-14.
