Scream bloody murder

CNN
About this episode

Almost one million people murdered in just one hundred days. It seems unfathomable, but that was the reality in Rwanda back in 1994 when militias and civilians from the country’s majority ethnic group, the Hutus, killed their Tutsi neighbors. Thirty years on, we take a look back at one of Christiane’s reports from 2008, when she returned to Rwanda to speak with some of those who have managed to find forgiveness since the genocide. 

Also on today's show: Rwandan Human Rights Activist Paul Rusesabagina; author Sarah McCammon (“The Exvangelicals")
