In 1994, over 1,000,000 Rwandans were killed by their neighbors. In 2003, over 80% of the perpetrators were released back into the communities they once sought to destroy. In 2016, over 61% of the population is under the age of 24.
Join us as we discuss the role of debate in healing and preparing the "wounded generation" to lead Rwanda. Champion debaters from Rwanda will be debating Pitt students on the topic, "In the aftermath of genocide, forgiveness is more important than justice." There will be an audience Q&A period. Open & free to all.
