Actress Quincy Tyler Bernstine delivers a monologue from Ruined Lynn Nottages Pulitzer-winning play that is set in the DRC and concerns women as human battlefields in civil war. Bernstine portrays Salima, as she remembers how she was raped by soldiers.

The monologue took place at the reception in the Russell Senate Office Building, Hearing Room 332. after the Congressional hearing on sexual violence in the Congo held on May 19, 2009 before the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, Subcommittee on African Affairs and the new Subcommittee on International Operations and Organizations, Human Rights, Democracy and Global Womens Issues. The hearing was called "Confronting Rape and other Forms of Violence Against Women in Conflict Zones Spotlight: DRC and Sudan.
