Congo Is Bleeding (4): The UN Mapping Report
The United Nations has written and published numerous reports about the current situation of things in the DRC. And one of such many reports is what is called the United Nation Mapping Exercise Report, or simply the UN Mapping Report. This report which was published in 2010, documenting and purporting about 617 incidents of various serious human right violations which has taken place in the DRC from a 10-year period of 1993 – 2003; documenting crime such as rape, mass killing, war crime, crime against women and children, and possibly genocide.
In this episode, we explore the relevance of this report on the situations of things in the DRC and also following many accusations against the UN and other international bodies.

Congo Is Bleeding (2): The Genocost
The term Genocost /Gen-Cost is used to mean genocide for economical gains. It's coined from 'genocide' and 'cost' and it's used to describe the inhumane historical acts being carried out in the Democratic Republic of the Congo which has claimed the lives of over 10 million Congolese since the industrial era of the 1800s and continues till this day.
The Geno-Cost is an initiative from the Congolese Action Youth Platform (CAYP) for the recognition of the Genocide against the people of the DR Congo which aim to have the 2nd of August as a commemoration day to remember all those that were lost since inception in the long violence of the Congo. www.genocost.org (@genocost on IG)

Congo Is Bleeding (1): A Modern Day Genocide
In August 1998, a war broke out in the Democratic Republic of The Congo - barely a years after the First Congo War (or what was refereed to as the African World War 1 ) of 1996. Over 6 million people have died - massacred, and millions more displaced. And till this day, this war continues. The reality of things in the DRC is horrendous, utterly barbaric and it's well-staged. The Congo is bleeding and it’s said to be a modern-day genocide perpetuated by some world class capitalists geared towards economic and financial benefits.
