For my second video in my "What You Are in the Dark" series, I've decided to cover the Rwandan genocide that spanned 100 days from April to July, and took the lives of about 800,000 people. This is a story of many heroes, but one of lesser known stories is the story of Captain Mbaye Diagne, who bravely rescued several hundred Tutsis during his time stationed in Rwanda.
Let me know in the comments which "forgotten hero" in history deserves a video! I would be glad to hear your suggestions. It can be a man or a woman, from any time or place, dead or alive.
