< __ Back __   Human Rights in Sudan



__ Primary Sources __ Girls' Education I chose this source because it is firsthand and explains how different girls' schooling is compared to in the U.S. This radio source is important because it explains the way girls are treated at school, as children, as adults, and compared to men. Mothers unfortunately encourage marriage over education, and after females marry they have a limited role. This reflects the discrimination against women's rights. Child Labor I picked this primary source because it is essential to the theme of human rights. It is important because it explains how children are told to work and further explains the way children are treated and how their rights are void of them. It states that children work most times for their families or siblings, and spend the money on their family rather themselves. This reflects how in Sudan, and a lot of Africa, there are little respected human rights. __ Artifacts __ Radio for Peace, Democracy & Development I chose this website for an artifact because it talks about so many issues and cultural aspects in Sudan. The radio site reflects the many social issues occurring Sudan. It talks about child labor, marriage, fire brigade, girls' education, and traditional dances in Sudan. This artifact is important because it has so much information and is a primary source because the radio host interviews people in Sudan. Sudan's Darfur Conflict I chose this for artifact because it explains the conflict occurring in Sudan and Darfur. This source is important because it talks about the militias and conflict and attacks that are happening in Sudan. Darfur has faced years of conflict over land rights. Darfur is the target of militia group(s), and the citizens have fled for their own safety. This artifact reflects the themes of discrimination, rights being taken away, and the corrupt government. [|Janjaweed Militia in Sudan] I picked this article because it is about a hired violent militia in Sudan that takes away citizens' rights. The militia attacks villages in Sudan and destroys the peoples' homes and tears apart families. This article is important because it explains how the militia targets certain ethnic groups and explains that the Janjaweed works under the government This article reflects the corrupt government and the lack of human rights in Sudan.
