We remember but soldier on

Remember. Unite. Renew. These three words have defined Rwanda over the past 20 years. Indeed, there could not have been a better theme as the nation marks the 20th anniversary of a genocide that shocked the world and changed history two decades ago: The 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
