Lessons from Rwanda’s healing process

Where were you when the killings started?

I was outside the country. It was surreal (following the events at home), you find it very difficult to see your family disappearing at the speed of light.  Every day you learnt of how so many have perished. You are confused, it’s hard to believe that this is happening to your land and it was hard to believe that in one hundred days we would lose more than one million people. So you can imagine the speed at which this was happening. This was state machinery at it’s highest efficiency.
