This podcast is about human experiences and how each one of us narrate their experiences in this life associated with the community, people and environment that surrounds us. As a writer I am asking my guests the question; What would you tell me if I am writing a feature film about you?. The podcast will be a mix of these interview and some episodes of me giving my own narrative of my own feature film as well.

12. Ala Kheir: Witnessing War Through the Eyes of a Sudanese Photographer

What Sudanese people thought is just another clash between SAF and RSF turned into 365 days of War. Genocide, rape and displacement, millions of Sudanese, lost their homes and assets to a war that is being neglected and addressed as a civil war to dehumanize another african nation.

In this episode of “The Lemon Narrative with Sabreen” I talk with Ala Kheir a Sudsnese photographer and Filmmaker who witnessed it all. Ala travelled through Sudan in April 2023, his camera is carrying untold stories of a heartbreaking tragedy. I listened to Ala telling the stories of our people, we both held our tears, our hearts were heavy filled with void as our grief is far less than the horror sudanese people are experiencing everyday while the world refuses to acknowledge them.

I am a sudanese-Canadian writer and the podcast host of “The lemon Narrative with Sabreen”. Through my travels I was always bothered by how visual identities are judged. I sensed stories hidden within the people I met, hence I started a treasure hunt through my writing and my podcast. I call it a treasure hunt because I came across beautiful stories finding home within each character I talk to and home is my treasure and my favourite place to be.

Follow me and listen to my podcast to enjoy these stories.
