Who will help keep courage alive?

Courage does not depend on numbers. 20 years ago – on December 28, 1993 – 600 members of the 3rd Battalion of the Rwanda Patriotic Army (RPA) entered Kigali in accordance with the Arusha Accords. The accords were a culmination of marathon talks between the RPF and the Rwandan government to bring to an end to a three-year armed conflict and a 30 year-old government sponsored terrorism, a precursor to the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi. The 3rd Battalion was to later on play a decisive role in ending the Genocide despite being pounded from all sides by the then Rwandan army (Ex-FAR).
