Stories

Here you will find extracts of interviews with the Jews of Sudan. They are arranged in a vaguely chronological order, although this is by no means exact.

 

All of these 'stories' come from interviews with members of the community that I carried out between 2015 and 2019. I have redacted, edited and in some cases rearranged their content, to make them easily readable online. I haven't added or changed any information from the original conversations, and I hope that each person's voice comes through in these very short extracts.

All stories have kindly been translated into Arabic by the Sudan Memory Project.
