| Summary |
Program #702 : Title: Shake hands with the devil "For a young Canadian general, Romeo Dallaire's assignment as commander of the U.N. peacemaking force in Rwanda in 1994 was a heady opportunity, animated by humanitarian ideals and a belief in the international system, he went forth with energy, enthusiasm, and expectations of success. Soon his hopeful confidence was shattered. The brutality, cynicism and disinterest he saw doomed the mission and left him with regret and suicidal despair. This is his story."-- Track sheet. |
|
Program #712 : Title: The known world "One of slavery's lesser known aspects was the ownership of slaves by freed slaves. Although rare, this circumstance provided a clear example of the moral destructiveness of "the peculiar institution". Edward P. Jones made this subject the theme of his Pulitzer Prize winning novel, "The known world". Here he discusses the book."--Track sheet. |
