DescriptionThe efficiency of the Hutu killers in the Rwandan genocide of 1994 exceeded even that of the Nazi Holocaust. It happened in front of the world's eyes, every moment broadcast on television - but nothing was done. Among the 80,0000 Tutsis killed were Joseph Sebarenzi's parents and seven siblings. "God Sleeps in Rwanda" follows Sebarenzi's return to Rwanda as an elected speaker of parliament, his attempts to reform the ravaged country, and the assassination plot that once again forced him into exile. Today, he educates the world about Rwanda, working to prevent these atrocities from ever happening again. Reviews"A thoughtful critique of Kagame's regime." --Stephen Kinzer, "Washington Post" Author descriptionSpeaker of the Rwandan parliament from 1997 to 2000, Joseph Sebarenzi now lives in Virginia and lectures in conflict management. His parents and seven siblings were among the thousands brutally murdered in the Tutsi genocide. |
