Tai Salih: Abolition, Resistance & Solidarity from Sudan to Palestine

  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Sumud Podcast, we are honored to host Tai Salih, also known as Red Ma’at—a Sudanese Pan-African abolitionist, womanist, and social justice educator. Forced to flee Sudan during the second civil war and later settling in Canada as a refugee, Tai has dedicated her life to dismantling oppressive systems, advocating for healing justice, and addressing the deeply rooted structures of colonialism and anti-Black racism. Throughout our discussion, Tai unpacks the following: ➡️ Colonial structures that uphold systemic anti-Black racism ➡️ Western exploitation of Sudan and Africa ➡️ The interconnections between global struggles for justice—from Palestine to Sudan and beyond. She also shares her personal journey of healing, resistance, and activism, and why self-care is a radical act of revolution in the face of oppression. 🎧 Watch the full episode and join the conversation: https://sumudpod.com 📲 Follow Tai Salih: @red_maat https://linktr.ee/redmaat 📲 Follow our host: @DrEdHasan Special thanks to Zeina Ashrawi Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction to Tai Salih 02:00 – What is Pan-African Abolitionism? 07:17 – Fleeing Sudan & the refugee experience 12:35 – The colonial roots of anti-Black racism 21:02 – Acknowledging Canada's Indigenous lands and the legacy of colonialism 30:53 - The effort to be actively anti-racist 45:24 - What is happening in Sudan now? 01:03:30 – How colonialism and capitalism thrive on division & suffering 01:29:52 – How to support Sudan and global liberation movements #Sudan #Politics #Activism Learn more about your ad choices.
