The #RwandanGenocide began 28 years ago.

April 7 1994.

One of the worst events in human history.

And one that looms large in my aid-worker family’s psyche

THREAD…with very distressing images

#Kwibuka28 #Rwanda #Genocide #GenocideAgainstTutsi Image I was home from university for the Easter holidays when the massacres began and I remember my parents and I being transfixed by the news.

They’d been aid-workers for decades.

Dad was with the UN’s refugee agency.

Mum, a child psychologist, worked with child soldiers.
