From the transcript
It's one of the biggest wars the world has seen in decades, a conflict with as much geopolitical impact as Ukraine and a body count far beyond that scene in Gaza. Yet Sudan's civil war has barely made a dent in the public consciousness.
While campuses were melting down over Gaza and world leaders were scrambling to respond to Russia's invasion of its neighbor, the carnage in Sudan has been met with deafening silence.
The nation's burned cities and countless dead are ignored by everyone from the western media to the African Union. Until now, in March, the Sudanese armed forces retook the capital city following a bloody months-long campaign. For the first time since 2023, it's starting to look like one side maybe heading towards victory.
