"By the Time You Come Back, the Hutus Will Have Finished Us" is a powerful memoir of survival in the face of unspeakable atrocities. Jean Baptiste was born in former Musange Commune, Gikongoro, called today Nyamagabe in southwestern Rwanda, during the worst massacres of Tutsi in the area. Jean Baptiste recounts his experience of growing up in a hate-filled environment and living under an oppressive regime that ultimately led to the genocide of over one million Tutsi in Rwanda in 1994. When the genocide started in April, Jean Baptiste was in Kigali working as an international freelance journalist for the Inter Press News Agency (IPS). His story is one of resilience, courage, and unimaginable loss as he shares the harrowing details of his family's massacre and his own narrow escape. Jean survived against all odds and in this compelling and deeply personal account, he sheds light on one of the darkest periods in human history. Serving as a testament to the human spirit's strength and endurance. Jean Baptiste¿s hope is that his story will inspire others and help prevent such atrocities from ever happening again.
Birds called. Breezes played among branches just bursting into green. Daffodils, proud and erect, stood in clumps about the dazzling lawn. Young, pulsing, eager things elbowed their way through last year's leaves to taste the morning sun; the wide-eyed celan dine, yellower than butter; the little violet, hugging the earth for fear of being seen; the sturdy bourgeois daisy; the pale-faced anemone, earliest to wake and earliest to sleep; the blue bird's-eye in small family groups; the blatant dandelion already a head and shoulders taller than any neighbor. Every twig in the old garden bore its new load of buds that were soft as kittens' paws; and up the wrinkled trunks of ancient trees young ivy leaves chased each other like school boys. Spring had come again, and its eternal Spirit Spread the message of new-born hope, stirred the sap of awakening life, warmed the bosom of a wintry earth and put into the hearts of birds the old desire to mate. But the lonely girl turned a deaf ear to the call, and rounded her shoulders over the elderly desk with tears blistering her letter.
"Like anyone who discusses the problems of girls and women in public, Caitlin Moran has often been confronted with the question: 'But what about men?' And at first, tbh, she dgaf. Boys, and men, are fine, right? Feminism doesn't need to worry about them. However, around the time she heard an angry young man saying he was 'boycotting' International Women's Day because 'It's easier to be a woman than a man these days, ' she started to wonder: are unhappy boys, and men, also making unhappy women? The statistics on male misery are grim: boys are falling behind in school, are at greater risk of depression, greater risk of suicide, and, most pertinently, are increasingly at risk from online misogynist radicalization. Will the Sixth Wave of feminism need to fix the men, if it wants to fix the women? Moran began to investigate--talking to her husband, close male friends, and her daughters' friends: bringing up very difficult and candid topics, and receiving vulnerable and honest responses. So: what about men? Why do they only go to the doctor if their partner makes them? Why do they never discuss their penises with each other--but make endless jokes about their balls? What is porn doing for young men? Is sexual strangling a good hobby for young people to have? Are men ever allowed to be sad? Are they ever allowed to lose? Have Men's Rights Activists confused 'power' with 'empowerment'? Are Mid-Life Crises actually quite cool? And what's the deal with Jordan Peterson's lobster? In this thoughtful, warm, provocative book, Moran opens a genuinely new debate about how to reboot masculinity for the twenty-first century, so that 'straight white man' doesn't automatically mean bad news--but also uses the opportunity to make a lot of jokes about testicles, and trousers. Because if men have neither learned to mine their deepest anxieties about masculinity for comedy, nor answered the question 'What About Men?, ' then it's up to a busy woman to do it."--

Additional content includes a pre-sex checklist, three must-knows before having sex, the secret to great sexual experiences, and word definitions. Many young people engage in sexual behavior before their brains have developed fully and they understand the risks. Having made mistakes as a teen, the author knows how challenging it can be to always make the right decisions. By giving your kids accurate information, you help them navigate the complexities of becoming sexually active and enjoy the healthy relationships they deserve.Consider starting the conversation to help: protect them from unplanned pregnancy, protect them from diseases, teach them about consent, educate them about porn, and understand emotional connection. Kids actually want help from their parents with these questions. If we don't teach them then they will learn about sex from their friends and online. Let's teach or kids sensible information they can use to be healthy in all aspects of their lives, including sexuality.
