SOCIAL & CULTURAL IMPACTS
Social and cultural impacts affect identity, traditions, and community cohesion among Sudanese communities in the diaspora. They often face pressures from displacement, generational divides, and societal discrimination.
Below are the major categories of social and cultural challenges impacting the Coalition of Sudanese Victim Communities in the USA.
Social and Cultural Impacts
Erosion of Cultural Identity
Generational disconnect, weakened communal practices, and diaspora pressures can erode language, traditions, and community values.

Discrimination and Racism
Sudanese communities often face racial bias, Islamophobia, xenophobia, and anti-Black discrimination in the U.S.
