[Salon] Michela Wrong: Blood, Bitterness and Betrayal

One of the sharpest observers of African politics, Michela Wrong joins us to discuss her latest controversial work. Do Not Disturb, The Story of a Political Murder and an African Regime Gone Bad is contributing to a rethink about the nature of the regime in Rwanda as it puts uncomfortable questions about the country's track record into the public domain. 

With her powerful investigation into a gruesome political murder and the authoritarian regime behind it, Michela upends the narrative that Rwanda sold the world after one of the deadliest genocides of the twentieth century.
