The author, a feminist's activist in Rwanda, describes in this article how the rape of her cousin and how the case was beeing handled by police and other authorities made her thinking about related general issues. She reflects on the major barriers women are facing when trying to achieve "real justice", meaning: social and gender justice. The author describes structural inequality, systemic injustices and the ongoing "victim blaming" in modern Rwandan society. She refers to the #MeToo movement as important and empowering for change and for challenging social norms that often lead to social stigma. | |
