Innocent

A poignant text on the Rwandan genocide.

Running. I run ahead of a past that pursues me. I have been running since 1994. I was a child. Tutsi. In Rwanda, everyone was running. We ran, we fell, we hid. Hutus against Tutsis. Tutsi against Hutu. And the whites. And the military. I lost my family. I lost my brothers. I have seen the horror of men. I run so that it does not catch up with me. And yet I am Innocent.

"Innocent" is available on Storyplay'r in an illustrated version, in an audio version narrated by french native storytellers. Thanks to our reading module, we can offer a reading aid for this story as well as for all the other ones, and tools for a dyslexic children adapted version.
