Black Agenda Radio · Human Rights Industrial Complex Protects Paul Kagame in Rwanda

The actual relationship between Human Rights Watch and the superpower is most clear in the case of Rwanda, where the United States backs Paul Kagame’s vicious Tutsi minority dictatorship. The Rwandan regime imprisons or kills those who point out that hundreds of thousands of Hutus, who constitute the overwhelming majority of Rwanda’s population, were killed by Kagame’s forces during the bloodbath of 1994.

Ann Garrison and the late Glen Ford discussed U.S. and human rights industrial complex support for Kagame in 2017.
