It’s the gossipy, smart, witty conversation you’d have if all of your girlfriends (and some of your guy friends too!) were experts on the hot topics of the moment. High spirited and high minded, we don’t argue or whine but seek to get to the heart of the matter, over cocktails (or wine).
One million people were killed in a one hundred days by their neighbors, colleagues, and associates in Rwanda from the Hutu ethnic group. The countries leadership in 1994 instigated this misguided hate and stripped an entire ethnic group, the Tutsi, of their humanity, equating them with cockroaches.
The weapons of mass destruction used in this massacre against the Tutsi and the moderate Hutu who helped them, weren’t bombs or guns. One million people were beaten and hacked to death by clubs and machetes. The survivors of the genocide are reminded of the torment they endured daily by the physical scars, deformities, and acquired diseases they’ve learned to live with. The most difficult hurdle in their journey however, isn’t visible. It’s the scars etched into their hearts with the one true weapon of mass destruction… hate.
Demarchoe Carpenter was only seventeen when he was wrongfully convicted of murder. He spent the next twenty-two years of his life trying to prove his innocence. His wrongful conviction isn’t an isolated incident, but rather part of a larger systemic breakdown. Through Buried Alive: Demarchoe’s story we hope to identify the systemic causes that ultimately led to his wrongful incarceration… and to use that knowledge to effect change.
