kigali genocide museum
Bookmarked 652 weeks ago rwanda is celebrating and believe me they have a lot to celebrate after 20 years of peace exact numbers killed are of course difficult to verify but it likely well over a million people which for a country as tiny as rwanda is about 1 in 5 we do know that at least 500000 people were killed in a mere 100 days after the assassination of juvnal habyarimana and cyprien ntaryamira on april 6 through mid-july in 1994it039s also quite difficult to guess the exact start date of the genocide because the definition of genocide wasn039t even recognized internationally until 1948 i would personally put the start of their troubles at 1933 when the then ruling belgians organized a census and mandated that everyone be issued an identity card classifying them as either tutsi hutu or twathis then started the tensions that led to an eventual genocide many people are familiar with rwanda both because of it039s unusual name and the association with the famous fact based movie quothotel rwandaquot but that was then and this is now and things have changed dramatically in the 20 years since the violence officially ended how039s this for a start fastest growing economy in africa and they are a tiny land locked country one of the least corrupt countries in the world ranking 50 out of 176 countries worldwide and certainly the least in africa by a long shot http:wwwtransparencyorgso how did they do it to start with it039s pretty hard to tell a tutsi from a hutu or twa while visiting on a sponsored tour of rwanda i asked several of our local guides where the differenced started most either did not know did not care or just didn039t want to say without any way to really distinguish between people there039s really no way to figure out what to fight about sounds simple enough but then of course you have people that were lucky to survive and maybe with them being the only one left of an entire family what do you say if you meet the killers which is entirely possible in a country that small quotforgivenessquot is the one word i heard repeatedly which of course we all know intuitively is the only way to move on at some point but forgiveness is much more than a word it039s a whole lot of pain that the people of rwanda finally agreed they had enough of how many countries can honestly say that they do not know what racial discrimination is anymore i039m prepared to say this is probably the only country in the world to have this beautiful reputation and that is but one reason a country would open several museums of genocide the horrendous sacrifices made by millions ultimately led to a society that boasts no discrimination no hatred and no animosityif your next travel plans find you in east africa i sincerely hope that you make the opportunity to be welcomed with open loving forgiving hands by not only all the people of rwanda but the spectacular gorilla039s and chimps that all choose to make this their part of the world their sacred home you can find a lot of helpful travel advice on line or simply shoot me an email percyvonlipinski gmailproduced and hosted by percy von lipinskispecial thanks to the usaid team and all the other travel journalists that put up with me for far too long and you know who you arespecial special thanks to his excellency president paul kagame for being one of the finest human beings on earth |
