I am ashamed to be Sudanese!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Said every day by my generation in different ways, I call it the denial syndrome, we are ashamed of it, it’s in the back of our mind, settled deep in our subconscious but we act as if it doesn’t exist. That is why our behavior contradicts what we say, I say I am a proud Sudanese, yet I carry around bags with American or Canadian flags. I say I am a proud Sudanese, yet when I speak with Arabs, I speak their accent and not mine. I pretend I am loyal to my country and it’s my priority to improve it , yet I am a teaching students of other countries , building houses for other cities , educating other colleagues , working as a doctor , nurse , engineer for other countries . Building future for other countries’ youth, what happened to my dreams for Sudan? They are in blue print, why? Because if we had a chance we could go back and erase any link to Sudan, ethnicity wise. (I am telling it like it is) The other option is unrealistic, that is to change the current situation in Sudan, for Sudan to become civilized. Which option is more realistic? None, there we go, switching to the denial mode again.
This post is designed for the younger youth readers ‘if there is any’ in the middle of the elder arguments, fights and insults in this board. It’s hard to attract any of us. If our generation isn’t loyal to Sudan and ashamed of it, I wonder why and what these people are fighting for?! .
I belong to the forgotten generation; we stand quite in the middle of the war for war. Watching as political parties fight for another war so as soon as they reach their primary goal they aim for their ultimate goal which is another war for their lasting power hungry souls are never dying and what do we , the youth , know about Sudan ? Only bloody war with old people fighting for their lust for power. I congratulate the government for destroying the unborn coming generation, for certainly, the government had us running to refuge to other countries left and right. It hasn’t stopped at that , it is having us carrying other passports ( and bragging about it ) , it’s having millions of us singing some other country’s anthem every morning , joining some other country’s army , speaking some other language , cheering some other football team and holding and drawing some other flag. To us the color of Sudan’s flag is red like blood.
So young readers, what are you true, honest feelings about the situation in Sudan? How do you feel about the country that your parents belong to? What are your wishes and regrets?
I am attempting to define and go in-depth of what I can call a future Sudanese Identity crisis , for a solution to this crisis can not be resolved if the problem wasn’t defined and tracked. This is not a search to know whether Sudanese are Arabs or not , not to know which tribe is superior or which political party should rule , for all I know my generation doesn't care about any of this and that is why I believe it's an urgent matter, unfortunately this is a search to know if my generation and the future generation wants to be Sudanese to begin with!
For the non members don’t hesitate to email me your opinion so I can post it here for you [email protected] Respectfully, Rawan Hamid
