Rwanda20 Years Later

April 6-7 marks the 20th anniversary of the beginning of the Rwandan genocide. In the

span of a mere 100 days, some 800,000 Rwandans were methodically hunted down and murdered by Hutu-power extremists—a horrifying example that such massive crimes against humanity are still possible decades

after the Nazi Holocaust.
