Sudanese People

[Ta seti]

Current geography of Sudan. It borders eight countries, Chad to the West, Central African Republic and the newly Republic of South Sudan to the South, Eritrea and Ethiopia to the East, and Egypt and Libya from the North, and the population pretty much overlapp with all the nations that borders it.

Nigerian photographer observation of the people


Late last year, September 2013, I was opportuned to visit Sudan for a week long masterclass in the art of documentary photography tagged “Where the Nile Meets”. It was anchored by Elder Akinbode Akinbiyi, a Nigerian based in Berlin, Germany. My initial perception of Sudan was built from sad stories of war and poverty as portrayed by the media. Although we landed in Khartoum, the capital, I felt a lot of the news had been overrated as I moved around. It was fascinating to go round the town and hear from these beautiful faces.

It was great to have met all these faces and shared great moments with them. I met a woman who said Sudan was a place for her to take time out with her kids and get some rest. More like a relaxation spot for her. I also met some of them, happy farmers and proud of what they do. It was a happy city with great people in it. I immediately made friends with everyone I had a conversation with and I decided to photograph them. Also worthy to note is their multicolour nature which was interesting to me.

I met a Sudanese Armenian, last Sunday, at Church. We talked about Coptic Christians. He kind of bears the likeness of an Egyptian Pharaoh. As for his height, he's a short thin guy.

Those guys are South Sudanese. They're generally considered to be the darkest people on the entire continent of Africa.

The Arabs in Sudan are about 40-45% black and 55-60% West Eurasian.

[KMack]

Stereotypes of Sudanese people in the Western world (USA and Europe) are quite negative. Sudanese are almost universely depicted as poor, poverty-stricken, and sometimes even starving. The common 'picture' of a typical Sudanese scene is one of very poor farmers, refugees, or the Sudanese militia.

The media and charity organizations promote this stereotype on a regular basis, by portraying them as war-torn and in need of urgent help, or as gun-toting thugs in the desert. Sometimes they are displayed as smiling and happy, but still as very, very poor. The recent media coverage of Sudan and South Sudan splitting has intensified the image of America and the west as being peace-loving and sensible, whilst Sudan is shown as intolerant and hostile - a 'Rogue Nation'. It's a very sad picture to be honest.

Sudan and S. Sudan is rarely if ever covered in the US media. The terrorist attack in Burkina Faso last month barely got covered. Stuff like that makes digital/print but is absent from TV. Same for Nigeria, or Senegal etc. If an Embasy and police HQ got attacked, with 30 dead and 85 wounded anywhere in Europe it would lead TV news for a week.

There's a difference between purely sub-Saharan southern Sudanese and the northern, linguistically Arab ones, which are a transitionary people to Egypt and the Middle East

Actor Alexander Siddig is half Sudanese Arab and half British.

Beautiful people. Are Sudanese Arabs mixed Nilotes or are they pseudo-Horners?

I don't get a Horner vibe from them much. They may have roughly similar amounts of Caucasoid overall but it seems to come from different sources. Sudanese Arabs seem more like an actual more recent (last 1-1.2k years) mix of SSA and something Arab or North African/Egyptian (which correlates well with their history/identity), and have less sharp or defined features, but often lighter pigmentation (I think some can come closer to passing as African American for example). Though many of the women have unique thick eyebrows too, from some international students I met; some were quite pretty. Horners seem to be a more "stabilized" and very ancient type with proto-Caucasoid influences, and can also have many hot women.

[GiCa]

Interesting place on phenotype. It seems that is the natural meet of North Africa and subsaharian africa

[Div1]

Very interesting place, historically the Nubians are a very overlooked people. There’s not much western coverage of there either. Doesn’t get covered much especially since there was basically a genocide in Darfur against the Nilotic people who live there.
