Revolutionary infrastructures, gender, and reaction in Sudan
Sudan’s revolutionary protest movement was an opportunity to challenge patriarchal social norms and the militarized political marketplace. Youth, and especially young women, led the revolution through creating a revolutionary infrastructure.

Revolution and Feminist Reimaginations in Sudan
This article explores female revolutionaries’ political subjectivities during what is popularly known as the December Revolution.

The article claims that we may vi…

Based on interviews conducted in Sudan in early 2022, we argue that this feminist mobilization was sparked by the backlash facing women during and after what is popularly known as the “December revolution.”1

Women’s rights activists and Islamist women within government institutions have largely mobilized in parallel, without much interaction and collaboration, to address the problems associated w…
