Today, we were taken to the Rwanda Genocide Memorial. Inside are display's of the story. Videos interviewing survivors, and what they saw happen to people the knew and loved. Also a room with hundreds of photos of people who died, given by their families. In another room were bones, and belongings. and another part.. the part i found the hardest to take in was dedicated to the kids who had been killed. There were massive pictures of the children, and a plaque with a discription of who they were, what they liked, their character etc, and at the bottom, how they were killed... i'm not going to go into details, but being a mother, i cannot even imagine how their parents felt.
Truly harrowing stories.
So much to get my head round.
