What happened in one day can happen anywhere, and people should be aware of [this], because it’s not something that happens overnight. - Consolee Nishimwe

I am part of making people be aware of how genocide can happen, so. And if we are aware, we can make sure we prevent that from happening again.

It takes a long time to express how we feel. I am trying to show the other survivors that we need to express that pain we have.

My feelings of pain and suffering now have also become a way of helping other people and a big part of helping society in general. So, it was not easy. But I’m glad that I never gave up. I persisted and pushed myself to become stronger than before.
