Summary of Oral History
Elisabeth Mupfasoni grew up with seven siblings. She remembers living in a peaceful community where all Burundians cared for one another, and the ethnic divide did not exist. Mupfasoni explained that she was a newlywed when the violence of the 1972 Genocide of Burundi erupted. She and her husband fled and lived with relatives for 2 months to avoid the attacks.
