Film Screening and Discussion: Genocide in Rwanda
In 1994, Rwanda was falling apart, and the world silently watched as men, women, and children were massacred because of their ethnic identity.
Every year, commemorative events known as Kwibuka, meaning “Remember” are held to pay tribute and remember the lives lost during the 1994 Genocide in Rwanda.
To encourage commitment against Genocide ideology, this year’s commemoration will be held under the theme “Kwibuka22: Fighting Genocide Ideology” not only in Rwanda but also around the globe.
The Genocide Watch and The Genocide Prevention Program at George Mason, in collaboration with Embassy of Rwanda in Washington, DC would like to invite you to a night of commemoration in honor of those who lost their lives. Please join us at School of Conflict Analysis and Resolution (S-CAR), Metropolitan building, 5th floor in Room 5183 on April 7th at 7- 9Pm. Physical address: 3434 N Washington Blvd Arlington, VA or 3351 Fairfax Dr. MS 4D3.
A short documentary will be screened, followed by a panel discussion featuring Ambassador Prof. Mathilde Mukantabana, Prof. Kevin Avruch, S-CAR’s Dean, Dr. Douglas Irvin Erickson, Director of the Genocide Prevention Program at George Mason University and Fr. Innocent Rugaragu, PhD candidate.
