"Rwanda" by Noah Berlatsky explores the tragic events of the Rwandan genocide in 1994, where ethnic tensions between the Hutu and Tutsi populations escalated into violence, resulting in the deaths of nearly a million people in just a few months. The narrative delves into the historical context, the international response (or lack thereof), and the personal stories of those affected by the brutal conflict. Through a combination of historical analysis and personal testimonies, Berlatsky aims to shed light on the complexities of identity, power, and the human capacity for both cruelty and resilience in the face of overwhelming despair.
