Almost two years ago when the U.S. Congress declared the atrocities Genocide, I was so elated and proud, believing that we were going to do something to save lives. I was so sure that this time around it was going to be different, assuming we learned from Rwanda. I must confess I never thought I was going to succeed even getting the resolution passed in the House, let alone see our government declare Genocide.
