<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Embracing Survival, a memoir by Dydine Umunyana, tells the story of the 1994 Rwandan Genocide against Tutsis at the hands of the Hutu perpetrators through the eyes of the four-year-old-child, that she was when the horror massacre occurred. Separated from her family, she barely survived the conflict. While the physical killing finally stopped, the mental and emotional torture continued, affecting her, her family and friends until acceptance led to the way forward.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Still in her 20s, Dydine Umunyana is the author of the book "Embracing Survival." Ms Umunyana was appointed a youth peace Ambassador in 2013 for the Aegis Trust, an organization dedicated to the prevention of genocide and mass atrocities worldwide. Subsequently, in 2015, she became a Global Mentor for Peace at Serve to Unite, an organization that cultivates peace through creative service learning and global engagement. Ms Umunyana is committed to establishing a dialogue between people for understanding their shared histories and culture differences. Through her writing and public lectures, her goal is to pierce the wall of silence that still pervades much of our society.
