Good Bye Julia Movie Review: Racism, Identity & the Cost of Silence

In this episode of Ladies of Sosa, we sit down with a panel to unpack the powerful film Goodbye Julia and the uncomfortable truths it brings to the surface. Through honest conversation, we explore the deeply rooted racism, colorism, and discrimination portrayed in the film, especially between North and South Sudanese communities, and how silence often allows harm to continue unchecked.

Our panel reflects on guilt, complicity, and the emotional weight carried by women in systems built on inequality. We also connect the film’s themes to real-life experiences in the diaspora, examining how these same dynamics show up today and why addressing them openly is necessary for healing and accountability.

This episode isn’t about blame, it’s about truth, reflection, and starting conversations many of us were taught to avoid.
