Le Rwanda sera à la "une" au printemps prochain. Pour une raison tragique : le vingtième anniversaire du génocide de 1994 qui ravagea le pays des "mille collines" et provoqua, au-delà des massacres, une profonde remise en cause de l'interventionnisme occidental dans l'Afrique des Grands Lacs et, dans l'ancienne puissance coloniale belge, un débat toujours pas refermé sur les responsabilités historiques des colonisateurs. L'Ame des peuples ne pouvait ignorer cette commémoration si emblématique des incompréhensions historiques qui peuvent conduire à des tragédies insoutenables. Colette Braeckman, grand reporter au Soir, auteur reconnu (Terreur Africaine, Les Nouveaux Prédateurs) spécialiste incontestée de cette région, est retournée sur place pour comprendre et nous raconter l'âme du Rwanda.

Parce que pour connaître les peuples, il faut d’abord les comprendre Le Rwanda est un mystère. Il y a vingt ans, en avril 1994, un effroyable génocide s’y déroulait, révélant au monde l’envers d’une colonisation manipulatrice, où tout fut mis en oeuvre pour faire s’affronter les Hutus et les Tutsis. Changement de décor complet aujourd’hui : le pays-martyr affiche sa prospérité et se rêve en plaque tournante de l’Afrique de l’Est. Le Front patriotique Rwandais au pouvoir depuis deux décennies y a, à la hussarde et d’une poigne de fer, transformé les villes, les paysages, l’économie, les mentalités. Ce petit livre n’est pas un guide. C’est un décodeur. Il nous donne à comprendre, à travers le récit d’une journaliste devenue au fil des ans l’une des plus grandes chroniqueuses des bonheurs et des malheurs de l’Afrique, la tourmente d’un peuple et les fatales erreurs de ceux qui l’asservirent. Un récit poignant, écrit à la première personne et accompagné de grands entretiens. Une parole libre et dérangeante pour raconter ce pays aussi fascinant que déroutant. Un grand récit suivi d'entretiens avec Jean-Pierre Chrétien (Les Rwandais sont aussi les acteurs de leur propre histoire) et Dorcy Rugamba (Une société martiale et solidaire) Un voyage historique, culturel et politique afin de mieux connaître les passions rwandaises. Et donc mieux les comprendre. CE QU'EN PENSE LA CRITIQUE - "(...) Belle et utile collection petit format chez Nevicata, dont chaque opuscule est dédié à un pays en particulier. Non pas un guide de voyage classique, mais, comme le dit le père de la collection, un «décodeur» des mentalités profondes et de la culture. Des journalistes, excellents connaisseurs des lieux, ont été sollicités (...). A chaque fois, un récit personnel et cultivé du pays suivi de trois entretiens avec des experts locaux. - Le Temps - "Comment se familiariser avec "l'âme" d'un pays pour dépasser les clichés et déceler ce qu'il y a de juste dans les images, l'héritage historique, les traditions ? Une démarche d'enquête journalistique au service d'un authentique récit de voyage : le livre-compagnon idéal des guides factuels, le roman-vrai des pays et des villes que l'on s'apprête à découvrir." - Librairie Sciences Po À PROPOS DE L'AUTEUR Spécialiste de l'Afrique pour le journal Le Soir (Bruxelles), auteur de nombreux livres, Colette Braeckman a fait du reportage de terrain, aux côtés des grandes et petites gens, sa marque de fabrique. Une authentique exploratrice des âmes et de la culture rwandaises.

"Twenty-five years ago in April 1994, a savage campaign of genocide was unleashed against the Tutsis of Rwanda. The violence of a hundred days left as many as a million people dead. This personal narrative tells the story of two survivors--Jean Bosco and his fiancée Christine. While most of their family members perished, they managed to escape to what is now famous as the Hotel Rwanda. Their story of survival is at once a love story and a harrowing inside look at what happens when a country is overrun by evil. But it is also a story of faith--an effort to find God in the midst of horror--and of their subsequent struggles to find meaning, healing, and reconciliation"--

By a seeming miracle, Illuminee Nganemariya, a young Tutsi bride and her newborn son Roger survived the 1994 attempt by Rwanda's Hutu extremists to wipe their Tutsi neighbours from the face of the earth. Illuminee existed for 100 days in the living hell of Kigali, Rwanda's capital, after watching her husband being dragged away to be killed by friends who had celebrated their wedding with them a month earlier. Then she embarked on a horrific journey through the Genocide with Roger strapped to her back. At any moment a wrong move would have seen them join the 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus who were slaughtered in the space of just three months. Illuminee Nganemariya has spent the last 14 years living in Norwich, England, dealing with the trauma of her 100-day nightmare.

Genocide involves significant death and trauma. Yet the enormous scope of genocide comes into view when one looks at the factors that lead to mass killing, the struggle for survival during genocide, and the ways survivors reconstruct their lives after the violence ends. Over a one hundred day period in 1994, the country of Rwanda saw the genocidal slaughter of at least 800,000 Tutsi at the hands of members of the Hutu majority government. This book is a powerful oral history of the tragedy and its aftermath from the perspective of its survivors. Based on in-depth interviews conducted over the course of fifteen years, the authors take a holistic approach by tracing how victims experienced the horrific events, as well as how they have coped with the aftermath as they struggled to resume their lives. The Rwanda genocide deserves study and documentation not only because of the failure of the Western world to intervene, but also because it raises profound questions about the ways survivors create a new life out of the ashes of all that was destroyed. How do they deal with the all-encompassing traumas of genocide? Is forgiveness possible? And what does the process of rebuilding teach us about genocide, trauma, and human life?

In 2004, the Academy Award–nominated movie Hotel Rwanda lionized hotel manager Paul Rusesabagina for single-handedly saving the lives of all who sought refuge in the Hotel des Milles Collines during Rwanda's genocide against the Tutsi in 1994. Because of the film, the real-life Rusesabagina has been compared to Oskar Schindler, but unbeknownst to the public, the hotel's refugees don't endorse Rusesabagina's version of the events. In the wake of Hotel Rwanda's international success, Rusesabagina is one of the most well-known Rwandans and now the smiling face of the very Hutu Power groups who drove the genocide. He is accused by the Rwandan prosecutor general of being a genocide negationist and funding the terrorist group Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR). In Inside the Hotel Rwanda, survivor Edouard Kayihura tells his own personal story of what life was really like during those harrowing 100 days within the walls of that infamous hotel and offers the testimonies of others who survived there, from Hutu and Tutsi to UN peacekeepers. Kayihura tells of his life in a divided society and his journey to the place he believed would be safe from slaughter. Inside the Hotel Rwanda exposes Paul Rusesabagina as a profiteering, politically ambitious Hutu Power sympathizer who extorted money from those who sought refuge, threatening to send those who did not pay to the genocidaires, despite pleas from the hotel's corporate ownership to stop. Inside the Hotel Rwanda is at once a memoir, a critical deconstruction of a heralded Hollywood movie alleged to be factual, and a political analysis aimed at exposing a falsely created hero using his fame to be a political force, spouting the same ethnic apartheid that caused the genocide two decades ago.
