The book concentrates on the construction of the trans-generational understanding of the labels of victim and perpetrator in contemporary society, investigating their impact on the diasporic consciousness of Rwandan and Bosnian communities in the United States, as well as their political participation and involvement.

The comprehensive analysis in this book is rooted in both the author's experience as a survivor of genocide and her deep understanding of the various social and political dynamics that shape the lives of immigrant communities.
