April 6-7 marks the 20th anniversary of the beginning of the Rwandan genocide. In the span of a mere 100 days, some 800,000 Rwandans were methodically hunted down and murdered by Hutu-power extremists—a horrifying reminder that massive crimes against humanity are still possible decades after the Nazi Holocaust.
