I chose this memoir for my #readafrica2022 to represent #rwanda. Two sides to every story. Well, in this case Hollywood‘s version and this memoir written by a survivor of the genocide. At times heartbreaking and horrifying his words stand as witness to his experience. If he could live through it and write about it. I could read it. @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB

BarbaraBB This must be a tough read 3y
KristiAhlers @BarbaraBB very much. I had to set it aside a few times. But I told myself if he could live through that I could read about it at least. 3y

5 ? If you've seen the movie "Hotel Rwanda", you need to read this memoir from a survivor of that hotel. This memoir not only tells how one man survived the genocide but also is well researched and cited for his claims against the hotel manager.

RaimeyGallant Too many to list, and none that I can remember verbatim. Litsy might eventually have filters on the feed so you can just scan through quotes, but for now, you might have success scanning for the quote posts. Also, there have been month long hashtag games in the past that focus on quotes, so you might try to find those hashtags. 7y
