Amazon.com:
A tragedy of historic proportions. A war that has claimed more lives than all other current wars around the world, but outside of Africa, no one seems to have noticed. Nightline covers the war in Congo in this five part series.
In the Heart of Darkness: War in the Congo (part 1) Fighting in Congo has involved as many as seven nations, displaced hundreds of thousands of people and killed millions more.
In the Heart of Darkness: Town of Shabunda (part 2) The city of Shabunda and its people have been ravaged by war. Meet a Catholic priest that tries to protect the community from the brutality of the conflict.
In the Heart of Darkness: Kisangani (part 3) Kisangani was once an economic center where many of the country's diamonds were sold.
Heavy fighting has choked off all river commerce for the community, and caused many civilian deaths. In the Heart of Darkness: The Porter (part 4) Nightline spends a day in the life of a Congolese porter. She is an extraordinary woman who is supporting ten children as a roadside carrier. In the Heart of Darkness: The Curse of Wealth (part 5)
At the heart of the continent, the richest patch of earth on the planet. The armies drawn by the wealth plunder, rape and kill. The people fleeing the soldiers are dying in the jungles by the hundreds of thousands.
