Speak Rwanda

Description:

"Speak Rwanda is the story of ten people - Hutu and Tutsi, civilians and soldiers, mothers, nurses, politicians, herdsman, and orphaned children - as they attempt to survive one of the most violent and deeply disturbing massacres since the Second World War. It is the story of the Land of a Thousand Hills, and area of lush beauty where tribespeople call to one another from forested mountaintops, but also a land where a complex system of class codes, discontent, and political unrest lurks beneath the surface." "Through the heart-wrenching voices of these ordinary people, we come to see how humans can be driven to commit or tolerate genocide, and finally how the survivors may come to live with such an experience."--BOOK JACKET.
