Congo Awareness Event
In collaboration with

and Feminist United Network
will show a film “The
Greatest Silence” (Since
1998 a brutal war has been
raging in the Democratic
Republic of Congo (DRC).

died. And there are the
uncountable casualties: the
many tens of thousands of
women and girls who have
been systematically
kidnapped, raped, mutilated
and tortured by soldiers
from both foreign militias
and the Congolese army. The
world knows nothing of these
women. Their stories have
never been told. They suffer
and die in silence. In The
Greatest Silence: Rape in
the Congo these brave women
finally speak.) The film
will be followed by a
discussion led by Women’s
Studies faculty. |
