| Résumé: | byLaure de Vulpian
A journalist who specializes in Justice and Law for a French radio station
(France Culture), the author tells us how, in 1988, she discovered the Rwandan
genocide, and then, evermore, in 2001. She also explains why, in 1994, although
working as a local station journalist, she had not had any knowledge of the
Rwandan genocide, since she had neither the force nor the will to look at what
happened. Bravely and with intellectual honesty, the author underwent a sea-change that culminated in a series of 25 outstanding broadcasts, produced in the
summer of 2003, in Brussels, by France Culture, covering trials of four people
accused of genocide in Rwanda. Finally, the author arrives and brings us to the
conclusion that such understanding is not common knowledge, and that on condition that one has the necessary empathy, one is allowed to truly understand and
to make such knowledge one's own. In the abyss of questions posed by a genocide, fragmentary answers and responses undescore the true fragility of human
behavior. |
