the greatest silence : rape in the congo

with 3 comments


Maria Namafu, 70 years old
Raped by 3 soldiers who told her “you’re not too old for us.”

Director’s Note: These are the faces of some of the women I met in eastern Congo, all of them rape survivors. I talked to them in their huts, in hospital beds, on the hard benches of the local church. Some of them waited for several hours to tell me their stories. And for every woman I spoke with there are many thousands whose voices we will never hear.
The Greatest Silence: Rape in the Congo
is a shocking exposé of a decade-old epidemic of kidnapping, rape and torture of women and girls in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Often carried out with impunity by gangs of armed militias, these atrocities leave survivors traumatized and isolated - shunned by society and their families, and suffering lifelong health effects, including HIV…Since 1998, a brutal war has ravaged the DRC, killing over 4 million people.

to all house negroes. we’re gunnin’ for you as you’re neck deep pursuing the enemy’s agenda and you gotta go. there’s no other way. all house negroes gotta go. from the north to the south. from the east to the west. ALL collaborators, killers, murders, psychos and plunderers will be removed from Africa.
