 The bulk of my field work has been done in Burundi because that's my dedication to contribute to the peace process in Burundi in any ways that I can. So one of the conclusions that have given me hope and to push forward with the work is that people are tired of violence. When I had no idea and I only learned that through my field work in Burundi, the people have learned through suffering and loss that there is a major gap between the political elite and the masses as far as their ambitions and desires and goals for life. The people and I'm saying the people are to distinguish you know the Burundian people from the political elite who are ingrained in everlasting power struggles. The people have learned that the elites political ambitions are not worth their suffering. And my greatest encouragement is that a statement leading to that conclusion came from a Tutsi person who looked at me as I was asking questions about his experiences with interethnic conflict and then he paused and then he said you know many of us are looking at all these politicians and then wondering and pointing a finger. Are your political ambitions worth my suffering? And I knew Burundi has had shifted in terms of consciousness of where the country should be going and any successful politicians in my mind will have to listen to that to those voices and follow that shift in order to constructively redress the country.
