I saw Rwanda's genocide museum. Why does Kosovo not yet have it?
Long before visiting the Genocide Memorial in Kigali, even before I entered Rwanda, I had so many questions.
Every visitor to Rwanda must begin traveling to the genocide museum to understand a place that has been to hell.
What led up to the irresponsible and systematic massacre of 800,000 Rwandans mainly at the Tutsi ethnicity for only 100 days in 1994?
How can a country not only survive but recover from such a human catastrophe? How does cruelty affect life among the guards today, and what deep, dark holes remain in their hearts?
Places of this kind are not new to me. I've visited Anne Frank's House in Holland, a former Nazi concentration camp in Austria, the Museum of Genocide Tuol Sleng in Cambodia, but this? Rwanda's genocide was not merely a rapid shock; it was alarming and alarming.
That's where I found Kosovo. I saw two pictures that gave me tears.
I was ashamed that our governments, where I am there, have not yet found the courage to do so for our country and the suffering we have experienced, the Serbian genocide in Kosovo.
Open for a decade after genocide, the memorial is a solemn act, a museum that causes tears. With the display of archive documents, photos, videos and weapons wrapped in the headscarves, internal exhibitions that shed light on Rwanda's genocide, as well as its colonial, colonial and post colonial roots. The room full of human skulls and bones was sad, but most of the heart was the memorial of children.
From the details that appear near their photographs, I learned about each child's favorite foods and activities. It was as if you were watching a family album except that it suddenly ended in how young people's lives were interrupted violently.
Kosovo must build this memorial. I would immediately propose that such a thing is pain but also pride. The references are a memory, but they're a memorial of the geonocid.
I have to convince everyone to have something so beautiful and painful and so on
A reminder to all generations.
