A Problem from Hell: America and the Age of Genocide by Samantha Power
This book examines the United States' response to genocides in the twentieth century, including those in Armenia, the Holocaust, Cambodia, Iraq, Bosnia, and Rwanda. The author argues that America's political leaders have consistently ignored or downplayed the severity of these genocides, and she explores the reasons behind this inaction. The book also profiles individuals who have fought to bring attention to these atrocities and hold the perpetrators accountable.
