Dear Chairman Howard L Berman,

I, an average citizen of the United States of America, implore you to look deeply into the rapes and mutilations of the women and children in the Congo. There is a documentary called: The Greatest Silence by filmmaker Lisa Jackson. The documentary contains footage of Congo women giving accounts of their attacks by rebel soldiers. The stories of the women and children in the documentary are horrid. Women and children between the ages of 4 to 80 are victims of rapes and mutilations. I humbly ask as a citizen of the United States and an inhabitant of this earth, that something be done about the inhumane attacks on women and children in the Congo. The attacks on women and children must be stopped.

    • Yes, the situation for women, even baby girls, in the Democratic Republic of Congo is dire! So is the struggle for rape survivors like my Congolese friend Regina to get asylum in America. Watch for my book SAVE REGINA (due out in 2010).
