> Colonial identity, extremist politics and ‘hate radio’ helped transform Rwanda’s genocide into organised mass murder. The account examines how these forces contributed to the mobilisation and coordination of large-scale violence against the Tutsi. It presents the genocide as a process shaped by political extremism and inciting broadcasts. Together, these elements helped turn persecution into organised killing.
