An Inconvenient Truth

by Rosie Millard, The New Statesman, London - Rwandan actors force us to confront our responsibility for genocide. Review of Peter Weiss's The Investigation, by a Rwandan company, Urwintore.


Comments (1)

Very moving review of what must be a devastating performance. Will we look at our part in genocide? What will we do about the genocide, the ethnic cleansing, going on in the world right now, often abetted with our tax money, encouraged or at least not resisted by our "democratic" governments in "developed" countries? My government in the US colludes with international arms sales, exploitation of the natural resources of other countries, and other nefarious activities that are part of this dreadful human abuse. When will we stop it? When we will even contact our own elected officials and demand action? When will we become visible and vocal?
