THE RWANDA BOX
In less than 100 days, more than 800,000 people were killed in Rwanda because of their ethnic identities. 25 years later, THE ALIGNIST will look back on the atrocities leading up to the Rwandan genocide. This box will unpack how society came to be so divided that neighbors turned against neighbors; an important topic as we deal with mounting divisiveness in our own society.
Although such atrocity is a painful topic to consider, the featured novel is told through the perspective of young girls, and filled with much more than ethnic strife alone: boy trouble and social anxiety, disdain for school lunches and the joy of expeditions into nature.
The ROADMAP will guide you through the making of an independent Rwanda and all that has transpired since. THE WHOLE STORY subscribers will also receive a variety of ethically-sourced items. We’ll hear from the author, experts, and see performers from Rwanda, watch our live event at The Greene Space in New York City.
We still have a limited supply of our RWANDA boxes. Order one today!
