Ausführliches Vorwort
PrologueKhalid Wad Albaih
I always found myself providing a roadmap to what used to be the biggest country in Africa: “Sudan is the biggest country in Africa”, “we have the most pyramids in the world”, “the Nile is actually formed in Sudan”, “no, Sudan is not all jungle”… you get the idea.
Sudanese are very proud people. However, the lack of knowledge and appreciation of an inclusive Sudan has been one result of the successful political Arabisation and Islamisation of Sudan since the country’s independence in 1956.
Like many, I only knew what I heard from my family about how clean and organised all the main cities were, where milk in glass bottles used to be delivered to homes every morning, where people took the tram and the well-equipped train, how well-established Khartoum University was. However, that is not enough to compile a mental image for me, let alone the rest of the world.
This book is the first edition of a selfish attempt to form a mental image of Sudan by tapping other artist’s memories.
The first-ever collection of its kind, Sudan Untold/Retold puts together creative narratives on diverse moments from comic book writers, graphic designers, cooks, film-makers, and illustrators. These artists were selected through an open call by Goethe-Institut in Khartoum in 2017.
