Summary:"Based on hundreds of interviews in Rwanda and elsewhere with government, military and United Nations officials, pastors and church leaders, survivors, refugees and displaced people, this book focuses on the part played in these events by churches in Rwanda, throughout Africa and around the world - sometimes a story of heroism and self sacrifice, but too often a story of cowardice, ethnocentrism and corruption. The author analyzes the roots of the tragedy, looks at the future of a shattered church in a shattered country and poses hard questions about what the church and the ecumenical family should do in a world where poverty, oppression and hatred are creating many potential Rwandas."--Jacket.
