Interview Description

During the 1972 Genocide of Burundi, Jeanine Nsekerbandya said perpetrators murdered her father because he was a police officer. The gruesome death of Nsekerbandya’s father traumatized her surviving mother so much that she was raised to hide whenever anyone knocked on the door or entered their home unannounced. Nsekerbandya said her mother received death threats long after her father was murdered. She was raised in constant fear of dying during a home invasion. Food was scarce, violence was prevalent, and money was nowhere to be found. Nsekerbandya said that in addition to taking all the family’s resources, perpetrators also stole her deceased father’s bicycle and would ride it around the community after his death.
