About Book
During the 1994 genocide in Rwanda, a large number of women were victims of sexual violence used as a weapon of war,
and some 20,000 children were born as a result of the rapes they endured.
Jonathan Torgovnik interviewed a number of the women and photographed them with their children,
publishing Intended Consequences: Rwandan Children Born of Rape in 2009).
Published as Disclosure: Rwandan Children Born of Rape,
this project continues to highlight the use of sexual violence as a weapon and its consequences.
It is a tortuous and profound trauma that affects the children born as a result and is also passed down to future generations.
In revisiting these families, Torgovnik has uncovered a difficult but meaningful story with powerful implications.
It is a story of hope and forgiveness, of fragility, and of the deep trauma and effects of genocide.
This book was published with the support of 402 people who participated in the crowdfunding effort.
Every support was essential to this project, and is greatly appreciated.
