Sin on a national scale

It is now 14 years since the Rwandan genocide and many other disasters have happened in the world since then. So, why read a book about the genocide now? Even though this awful atrocity took place some years ago and efforts have been made to deal with the crisis, serious problems still remain in the country and these must be addressed, not only for the sake of the people living there, but also to prevent another episode of a similar kind taking place.
