To share their experience during run discover our the 1994 genocide 25 years ago they went up to a 1000000 tutsis a moderate hutus were wiped out in just 100. 00 days but it would divide it among those who carried out the killings and those who survived it. Memories of being on the run and how his pregnant wife had to give birth in hiding of it. When we couldnt find a way that the baby would survive being with us but i still had friends who i was doing business with they helped me and they took my newborn at night to a woman who run an orphanage at. The baby stage but
a few days later the perpetrators went there to look for him and they took my baby and killed him. Up don now lives a peaceful life with his wife.

A man needs to overcome his pain. Away from social pressures of at least an upturn im glad they have found a safe space to reconcile and work on their psychological wellbeing. Therapy helped. Because we used to fear each of. Whenever i saw a person i had wronged. I could feel my heart racing. We have no problems with the perpetrators anymore because they are also part of the
families of social therapy. When we meet now we are the same we have the same heart. About each of them both of them look at. The man of peace a new social Therapy Group hope to contribute to the healing of their country so that future generations wont repeat their mistakes. By facing their demons together they set an example. So that rundown men learn how to show their emotions. And the society learns to accept that.
