People in Sudan are back on the streets.

In 2019, they protested for months to remove President Omar al-Bashir after 29 years in power.

They stayed on the streets until the military agreed to share power with civilians.

There were supposed to be elections in 2023, but a coup two weeks ago has put that in doubt.

Is democracy the Sudanese worked so hard for now in jeopardy?
