Letter: Slur on the innocent in Rwanda
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: Your leading article on Rwanda, by focusing on what seems a hopeless situation, serves only to make it more hopeless. In reality there is hope, if the vision is widened a little. At the same time as the tragic events in Rwanda, a general strike has been taking place in Nigeria against a hated military government. Here ordinary Africans of many different ethnic backgrounds have shown that it is possible to unite to change the world.
Their example should give hope that the future in Rwanda can be different as well.
Yours faithfully,
