Arts in the Times of Displacement

The Sudan crisis has displaced more than 2 million people since it began on 15th April 2023. Among those forced to migrate for their safety are musicians and creatives who have had their creative practice disrupted by this violent war. As these creative networks are torn apart, their practices will now be a new timestamp in Sudan's long relationship between displacement patterns and the evolution of the arts.
Space Black, a resident of Oroko Radio, invites Izzo, the founder of Al Rassa, to curate a radio show featuring Sudanese artists who have been displaced by the war. The show aims to document the stories and sounds of these artists, who have faced disruption and migration due to the conflict. The show also supports the artists and the Sudan aid fund through t-shirt sales and donations. The show will air on 3rd July 2023, day 79 of the war.
