On the morning of April 10^th. 2000, a day that will forever remain etched in our collective memories, sixteen innocent middle and high school students were mowed down by the crackle of machine-gun fire on the outskirts of the city of Sere Kunda. The massacre that followed, ordered by the cowardly butcher, Yahya Jammeh, was the worst case of blatant abuse of human rights in our country’s history. On this tenth anniversary of that infamous day, we once again pay our respect to their memories. They died for the cause of our freedom, and now that they are no more, we will not rest until we find justice for them, their families and our country; no matter how long it takes. Gone, but never forgotten.
