A People Betrayed

In this classic of investigative journalism, Linda Melvern tells the compelling story of what really happened during Rwanda’s 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. She reveals the scale, speed and intensity of the unfolding genocide, as well as exposing the governments and individuals who could have prevented what was happening, if they had chosen to act. The book also tells the unrecognised heroism of those who stayed on during the genocide — from volunteer peacekeepers to courageous NGO workers.

More than a quarter century on from one of the darkest episodes in modern history, A People Betrayed is a shocking indictment of how Rwanda was ignored then and how today it is remembered in the West.
