- In the vibrant tapestry of human history, there exist moments of profound darkness, where the hues of despair and cruelty stain the canvas of time. Among these somber chapters stands the Rwandan genocide, a harrowing testament to the fragility of peace and the depths of human brutality.
The roots of the Rwandan genocide stretch back through the annals of time, entwined with a colonial legacy that sowed seeds of division and resentment among its people.

Coincidentally, I published a video on this topic earlier today by 4pm. Such a coincidence... Great job as always.
The narrator is absolutely captivating
Thank you. I am a historian, and it has been frustrating me for years that i couldnt find decent modern African history videos for my students. You have filled a gaping hole with much needed knowledge! Well done, sir.
You guys are far and above the most thorough and deeply researched African explainer platforms out there. You are an inspiration to our podcast ! We'll be putting up a Rwanda 30 years on explainer soon as well!
For over a year now this African Biographics channel has graced me with in-depth knowledge of post-colonial Africa in hindsight, illucidating and even disputing more than half-century long dogmas about leaders, actors, stakeholders perceived to be either heros or villains.
Bro, I wish I could tip you for this video. By far the Best and the most detailed account of the Rwandan Genocide
Thanks for this video. As a Nigerian, it is so refreshing to see objective and factual discourse of African history and geopolitics. I appreciate how you correctly point out that colonialism was not what created the Tutsi-Hutu divide. It already existed. Colonialism just accentuated it😢 Your videos are not plagues by identity politics or fallacies, just history. Respect to you, sir. You gained a sub
French involvement in the affairs of African countries after the end of the formal colonialism has more often than not been disastrous.
I've been watching your documentaries from time to time but I will say this by far is your best work yet!
Good job. I love how much this channel has grown. I see many western CZcamsrs now trying to catch up and share African history videos too.
Simply the best source of history...please publish a book so we can use it to teach our children real history!!!❤
Thank you, in the west we only know about the RG as a 'simple' conflict between 2 ethnic groups. This video has taught me the history, context and nuances of the situation i never would have known. I work a normal job and didn't finish school but channels like yours gives me a chance to learn world history i never could have 20 years ago.
When the hatred is deeply rooted, it takes unselfish individuals to rise above the hate. Its hard but not impossible
Wow! Thank you for this…
Outstanding narration drags you deeper into the story.
I have never had Rwanda's and Burundi's history articulated so objectively. We pray for you our brothers, The essence of history is for us to learn from the past mistakes and triumphs and to chat a better present and future for our coming generations.
This video is so well done. Explains really important details in an easy to understand way. Can be enjoyed by experts and people just starting to learn about the Rwandan Genocide. Keep up the good work :)
Thank you for bringing us world class documentary and information on African Countries
Good morning my fellow Africans, this is epic ❤
Your style of storytelling and clarity is really good. Keep it up 👍
