Because of the film, the real-life Rusesabagina has been compared to Oskar Schindler, but unbeknownst to the public, the hotel's refugees do not endorse Rusesabagina's version of the events. In the wake of Hotel Rwanda's international success, Rusesabagina is one of the most well-known Rwandans and now the smiling face of the very Hutu Power groups who drove the genocide. He is accused by the Rwandan prosecutor general of being a genocide negationist and funding the terrorist group Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR). For the first time, learn what really happened inside the walls of Hotel des Mille Collines. In Inside the Hotel Rwanda, survivor Edouard Kayihura tells his own personal story of what life was really like during those harrowing days within the walls of that infamous hotel and offers the testimonies of others who survived there, from Hutu and Tutsi to UN peacekeepers. Kayihura writes of a divided society and his journey to the place he believed would be safe from slaughter. The book exposes the Hollywood hero of the film Hotel Rwanda, Paul Rusesabagina, as a profiteering and politically ambitious Hutu Power sympathizer who extorted money from those who sought refuge, threatening to send those who did not pay to the geÌnocidaires, despite pleas from the hotel's corporate ownership to stop. Inside the Hotel Rwanda is at once a memoir, a critical deconstruction of a heralded Hollywood movie alleged to be factual, and a political analysis aimed at exposing a falsely created hero using his fame to be a political force, spouting the same ethnic apartheid that caused the genocide two decades ago. Kayihura's Inside the Hotel Rwanda offers an honest and unflinching first-hand account of the reality of life inside the hotel, exposing the man who exploited refugees and shedding much-needed light on the plight of his victims.--Publisher's description. 600 10 $a Rusesabagina, Paul, $d 1954- 600 10 $a Kayihura, Edouard, $d 1965- 610 20 $a Hotel des milles collines (Kigali, Rwanda) 600 17 $a Kayihura, Edouard, $d 1965- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01958473 600 17 $a Rusesabagina, Paul, $d 1954- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01624418 610 27 $a Hotel des milles collines (Kigali, Rwanda) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01658678 600 14 $a Rusesabagina, Paul, $d 1955- 600 14 $a Kayihura, Edouard, $d 1965- 610 24 $a Hotel des milles collines (Kigali, Rwanda) 650 0 $a Genocide $z Rwanda. 651 0 $a Rwanda $x Refugees. $y Civil War, 1994 $x Refugees. 651 0 $a Rwanda $x Civilian relief. $y Civil War, 1994 $x Civilian relief. 651 0 $a Rwanda $x History $y Civil War, 1994 $v Personal narratives. 650 7 $a Civilian war relief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352327 650 7 $a Genocide. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00940208 650 7 $a Refugees. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01092797 651 7 $a Rwanda. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01212358 648 7 $a 1994 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Zukus, Kerry. 941 $a 2 952 $l N2AX314 $d 20210728020843.0 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508020607.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AAD71E5090F111EA86A69E4897128E48 994 $a 92 $b UINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
