Genocide In Rwanda: Testimonies of Survivors - 9781979863759

It is true time heals all wounds and the pain felt today will be less than what the heart will feel tomorrow. But then history cannot be erased. And the Rwanda genocide left wounds that may hurt less now but whose scars remain so visible. Recorded herein are life changing stories of some genocide survivors. Only they can best describe their fears, struggles and turmoil. A period of 3 months saw members of the Hutu ethnic majority murder as many as 800,000 people, mostly of the Tutsi minority. Ordinary citizens were incited by local officials and the Hutu-led government to take up arms against their neighbours, friends, in-laws and wives. Hutus of all ages were trained to be strong, brutal and vigilant while conducting acts of hatred against the Tutsis.
