Abstract: 

This paper reflects on the memory of the genocide in Rwanda from two angles. First, through the literary project, 'Rwanda: Writing as a Duty to Memory', in which I was involved along with nine other African writers and also through the Gisozi Memorial Museum in Kigali which is one of the main official forms of representation of the genocide. I shall not look at all the other constructions of memory, namely through fine arts, music and cinema.
