"Reconciliation and Remembrance: 30 Years After the Rwandan Genocide"

As Rwanda marks the 30th anniversary of the genocide, survivors like Rachel Mukantabana, who lost many family members, now live in reconciliation villages alongside the perpetrators. The government has outlawed speech that draws ethnic distinctions and has a reconciliation barometer, rating reconciliation at 94.7%. Experts say reconciliation is a messy process, with perpetrators like Didas Kayinamura sharing complex narratives about their involvement. Despite the brutal history, survivors and perpetrators are learning to live side by side in a community where ethnic divisions are being replaced by a shared Rwandan identity.
