History of the Anywaa People

The Anywaa people used to live together in the past before we were geographically divided between Ethiopia and South Sudan. Despite their geographical separation by the two countries, the Anywaa people of the countries share a common culture and language. ACM wants to connect people and preserve our rich history.

FAQs

    Anywaa Community in Minnesota believes that when people unite, change is possible. Ethiopian and Sudanese people have a history that runs deep and a connection to one another. We are taught from a young age that when we help each other, great things can happen. 


    The Anywaa people (immigrants) from two countries have formed community specifically in Minnesota. The members of the Anywaa community from both countries started arriving in the Twin Cities in 1990s. Most of them settle in the seven counties in the Greater Twin Cities area. Our community is made up of thousands of Ethiopian or Sudanese people. Let's unite together for a better life!
