Sudan Tapes Archive: Preserving Memory

Sudan Tapes Archive is a DIY project started by Haneen Sidhamed where she digitizes and makes Sudanese music cassette tapes available to stream online. This project is important amid ongoing war in Sudan, the closure of recording and publishing companies, and the physical burning and destruction of cassette tapes. KEXP’s Julianna Covarrubias speaks with Sidhamed about the project.  https://www.sudantapesarchive.com/  Support the show: https://www.kexp.org/sound/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
