Rwanda Violence

Danny speaks with Janet Fleischman of Human Rights Watch about an unreported aspect of the Rwandan genocide. Reviewing a new Human Rights Watch report that she co-authored, Ms. Fleischman says Hutu death squads not only murdered up to a million members of the Tutsi minority, but also raped tens of thousands of Tutsi women. Fleischman says the rapes were part of the systemic Hutu campaign of genocide against the Tutsis.
