Our friend, Lisa, who is helping us create our web site, visited the Kigali Memorial Center. We thought what she had to say was very interesting.

Genocide memorials are invariably heartwrenching and always difficult to visit, but I was not prepared for this morning’s visit to the Kigali Memorial Center. As I walked past the testimony of those who escaped in 1994 and saw the pictures of children who were not as lucky, a group of students from AERG - the organization of child survivors that I am working with through Survivor Corps - wearing purple handkerchiefs and scarves (purple is the color signifying remembrance) accompanied me.
