Michela Wrong's Remake of Rwanda's Untold Story
Jos van Oijen, an independent researcher from The Netherlands who publishes on genocide-related issues, investigates claims made about the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda in Michela Wrong's new book Do Not Disturb: The Story of a Political Murder and an African Regime Gone Bad.

But "more recently these previously marginal myths are being fed to a world audience by reputable media..." and "the latest contribution to this new tradition is Michela Wrong's book." Read on.
