The only thing I remember about being 10 is that I turned a double digit and got a purple bike for my birthday.
In April 1994 during the course of approximately 100 days the genocide in Rwanda took place and between 800,000 and 1,000,000 people were brutally raped, tortured and killed.
I do not remember being aware of that when I was ten.
That is approximately the population of San Francisco, California
I am sure, even if I was ten, that I would have been aware if each person in San Francisco was being brutally murdered.
"I know there is a God because in Rwanda I shook hands with the devil. I have seen him, I have smelled him and I have touched him. I know the devil exists, and therefore I know there is a God." - Canadian Lieutenant General Romeo Dallaire
