For updates on human rights in Rwanda, see HRW's country page. The BBC has a good brief article on 'How the Genocide Happened'. I always find it interesting to look at the government's website as a useful introduction to the current issues in the country, and if you would like to go into more detail, I highly recommend that you check out Frontline coverage-- they have interviews, a chronology, political background, analysis, and more.
Susan Sontag's preface says that this book is one that "everyone should read . . . [because making] the effort to understand what happened in Rwanda . . . is part of being a moral adult."
We will meet on Tuesday, April 12th to discuss the book.
