"Whenever I see stories about the destructive civil war which has been waging in Sudan I think about Mahmoud Mohammed Taha. He not only struggled for Sudan's independence from Britain but he also struggled and died for a united Sudan. The vision he had for his country was a Sudan which was free of the ethnic and religious polarization which has led to some many wars in the country's history including the secession of South Sudan. He also rejected the forced Arabization in favor of embracing the nation's African identity. We have produced some brilliant and visionary leaders who showed us that"
