World Press Photo 2020: Image of Sudan uprising victories

A well-known survey graph from last year in Sudan has received the prestigious World Press photograph of the 12-month award.

The photograph, entitled “Right to speak,” was taken by AFP photographer Yasuyoshi Chiba.

It shows a protester reciting protest poetry, although a group of fellow protesters illuminate him with the light of their phones.

The judges said of Chiba “poetic” photo confirmed the electrical power of youth and illustrations.

The long-standing rule, Omar al-Bashir was overthrown earlier in April, the main one to a violent battle between the army and the pro-democracy movement.

Speaking about the graph, Chiba explained: “This second was the only quiet protest by the team that I encountered in the course of my life. I felt their undefeated solidarity like the embers that are left to explode again. “

Jury President Lekgetho Makola reported that although it is currently taken through a period of conflict, photography “inspires people.”

“We consider this young woman, who is not capturing, who is not throwing a stone, but reciting a poem,” he explained. “It really is recognition, but also expressing a sense of hope.”

5 other photos had been nominated as finalists in the contest.
