Book excerpt: On April 6, 1994, the plane carrying the president of Rwanda was shot down. From that moment, 100 days of massacre began, leaving more than 1 million Tutsis dead and nearly 4 million displaced. Dydine Umunyana Anderson was only four years old when the genocide against Tutsis erupted, devastating the fertile "land of milk and honey." Thirty years after the violent onslaught by the Hutus, this testimony confronts us with the wounds of postcolonial Africa and reveals the long process of reconciliation that Rwanda and Dydine have undergone to heal and embrace life.
