So please spread the word:
Congos Past Still Her Present:
Gynaecologist Denis Mukwege, of Bukavu's Panzi hospital, rang his friendChristine Schuler-Deschryver, a human rights worker in the town. He said he had started to see injuries he had never seen before – women who had been raped in terrible ways, whose reproductive organs had been wrecked, who were suffering from fistulas between the vagina and rectum inflicted not just by gang rape but also by attacks with sticks, guns, bottles. "I said to Christine, this is new," he recalls. "Their vaginas are destroyed. I couldn't understand what was going on." (Beginnings of Victory, Valentine & Vigina)
Mankind is anything but kind. Most men are only as good as their options and their opportunities to do as they would please. Thanks for what you said on Jo's blog. I hope you like French Quarter Nocturne, Roland
