I knew nothing about that massacre until a visit to the museum about it in Sarajevo. Very modern and well done - with timelines, testimonies, numbers... It really hit me hard, and put into perspective the conversation I had with young Serbians less than a week before, about how NATO bombed them "for no reason". It's really crazy how recent this massacre is, and how I probably would not even know about it were it not for our visit to the region. It was not taught in school, and I'm to young for having heard aout it in the news.
