ICYMI: Why Are We Ignoring The Genocide in Sudan?
Mehdi addressed one of the biggest humanitarian crises in the world with Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik.
More than 14,000 people dead, more than 8 million people displaced, yet Sudan is rarely mentioned in our media headlines. Well, Zeteo made sure it got attention this week, on ‘Mehdi Unfiltered’.
“Innocent civilians are being caught in the middle as a civil war has turned proxy war has turned genocidal war,” explained Mehdi. Joining him on the show was award-winning British-Sudanese journalist Nesrine Malik, who outlined how the lack of information from the ground is preventing global coverage, “we don't have enough images, we don't have enough footage, and we don't have enough of galvanizing information that could really attract people's eyeballs and attention.”
Watch the important segment on Sudan above, including Mehdi’s introduction to the issue, and be sure to let us know what you think of the discussion with Nesrine Malik, as well as who you think we should have on the show next.
Thank you for highlighting this genocide and thank you to Nesrine for painting a true and honest picture
I'm ashamed to admit that I do not know nearly as much as I have to so I'm thankful to him doing this interview and highlighting the genocide in Sudan.
