This was heartbreaking, infuriating, shameful, and so intense. I needed multiple breaks to digest what I was reading, to continue to bear witness of the atrocity occurring in the Congo. The exploitation of the Congo and its people goes on and on. Everyone who uses a smartphone, laptop, drives an EV etc. needs to read this book. So, basically, all of us.
