In this episode, Paul Rukesha, a survivor of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, shares his powerful story of survival, memory, and healing. He reflects on how the genocide didn’t start in 1994 but was preceded by years of discrimination against Tutsis. Paul also explains genocide ideology and denial, emphasizing the importance of confronting them through education.

Now the Director of Communication and Outreach at MINUBUMWE, Paul has dedicated his life to preserving memory and promoting reconciliation. He urges the youth to seek knowledge intentionally—questioning what they see online and engaging with resources like libraries and genocide memorials as tools for education and peacebuilding.
