The Men Who Killed Me: Interview by Dave Peterson

In the hundred days of genocide that ravaged Rwanda between April and July 1994, an estimated 250,000 to 500,000 women and girls were raped. No one was spared. Grandmothers were raped in the presence of their grandchildren; young girls watched the massacre of their families before being taken as sex slaves. To a lesser extent, boys and men also fell victim to sexual violence. Fifteen years after the Rwandan genocide, a new book features testimonials from seventeen survivors. Through their narratives and portraits by photographer
Samer Muscati
, sixteen women and one man bear witness to the crimes committed against hundreds of thousands of others. Sandra Ka Hon Chu co-author of The Men Who Killed Me: Rwandan Survivors of Sexual Violence sat down with David Peterson to talk about their story.
