The Burden of Peace
Women Speak in the Aftermath of Kenya's 2007 Post-Election Crisis [DVD]
Narrated by Shailja Patel

Peace has returned to Kenya after the violence that erupted in the wake of the disputed elections in 2007. Yet for many of the country's women - killed or widowed, maimed and gang-raped, displaced and dispossessed - this is not their peace.

Their voices, recorded from across the country's kaleidoscopic ethnicities and political persuasions, ring out loud and clear in this film, speaking about the burdens women continue to bear from the past as the price for this peace.
