Immaculée Ilibagiza is a Rwandan author and motivational speaker. She is best known for her memoir, "Left to Tell: Discovering God Amidst the Rwandan Holocaust," which recounts her harrowing experience during the 1994 Rwandan Genocide. Ilibagiza survived the massacre by hiding in a small bathroom with several other women for 91 days, relying on her faith to sustain her through the ordeal. After the genocide, Ilibagiza moved to the United States where she continued her education and began sharing her story. Her works focus on the power of forgiveness, faith, and the resilience of the human spirit. She has since become a prominent speaker on peace and reconciliation and has received numerous awards for her work, including the Mahatma Gandhi International Award for Reconciliation and Peace.
