Lynn Nottage and Lisa Jackson's HRW Podcast on Women in Congo

Posted on DateTue, August 11, 2009

Human Rights Watch podcast of artists Lynn Nottage and Lisa Lackson talking about women in Congo

Human Rights Watch features this excellent podcast of Pulitizer Prize-winning playwright Lynn Nottage talking about her play ‘Ruined’  and Lisa Jackson’s film ‘The Greatest Silence’, interviewing women in the Congo about their rapes.

Please invest 12 minutes of your time, to listen to these two articulate artists, interviewed by Amy Costello and Christina Salerno. The interviews aren’t propaganda, but rather informative, educational, inspiring, culturally-nuanced discussions about rape in the Congo.

If the podcast moves from its current link, look for it here: Rape in Congo — Rights Watch #10. Anne
