I\u2019ve written and deleted many paragraphs, looking for the right words to capture the sheer terror and helplessness that I have felt every day since October 7, every time I glance at my Twitter timeline or Instagram feed. And if I am feeling this way, how much more for those who have lost entire families, for those in darkness, under siege and under constant bombardment in Gaza.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I don\u2019t have clever words to say at this time. What comes to mind is Mahmood Mamdani\u2019s book <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Victims Become Killers<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, exploring the historical, geographical and political forces that came together in deadly synergy in Rwanda, culminating in the 1994 genocide. Mamdani\u2019s crucial argument in that book is that there was \u201cno mysterious evil force bizarrely unleashed\u201d in Rwanda three decades ago. The genocide was not \u201cunthinkable\u201d, even if it felt that way. It was, in fact, the product of a series of decisions influenced by historical legacies, geographical factors, political dynamics, and social pressures, made by real people, from high-ranking state officials, local officials, community leaders, all the way down to ordinary villagers.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It may seem like a small point, but Mamdani\u2019s argument is this, and applies especially in this moment to those making the first draft of history: many times, when we are reporting about atrocities, we cannot simply say that the violence is \u201cunthinkable\u201d. Doing so amounts to a convenient evasion, a way to avoid grappling with the why it is happening. In Mamdani\u2019s words, \u201cAtrocity cannot be its own explanation. Violence cannot be allowed to speak for itself, for violence is not its own meaning. To be made thinkable it needs to be historicized.\u201d<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of fixating solely on the gruesome details of the genocide, as many other writers have done, Mamdani&#8217;s goal in the book is to place this tragic event within its broader historical context\u2014to make it thinkable. The only way we can truly comprehend acts of violence, establish accountability and justice, and prevent future occurrences is by thinking about them. So, even in this brutal moment, remember that what is unfolding in Gaza is not so complex that it defies explanation. There are no mysterious, ancient, cryptic forces at play here.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the meantime, here\u2019s:\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><b>What We\u2019re Reading<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/africasacountry.com\/2023\/10\/we-shall-overcome\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We Shall Overcome<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: this is one of those rare instances when I plug my own work!
