Rwanda: From Tragedy To Transformation A Story Of Unity, Resilience, And Vision

There was a time when Rwanda was known to the world for pain.

A time when humanity was tested in the darkest way.
In April 1994, during the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda, over one million innocent lives were lost
not because of what they had done,
but because of who they were born as.

Families were broken.
Communities were destroyed.
Hope seemed lost.
And while the world watched, Rwanda suffered.
But that is not the end of the story.

The Courage To Rise Again

From the ashes of tragedy, Rwanda chose a different path.

A path of:

Unity over division
Truth over denial
Healing over revenge
Vision over despair

The Genocide was stopped by the courage and determination of the Rwandan Patriotic Front, and a journey of rebuilding began.

A nation once broken decided to stand again together.

A Nation Built On Unity

Today, Rwanda is a powerful example of what unity can achieve.

Citizens are no longer divided by ethnicity
They stand as one people, one nation.

Across the country:

Communities work together
Youth collaborate and innovate
Families rebuild with dignity and purpose

There is a shared understanding:

Division destroys.
Unity builds.

Peace And Security As A Foundation

Peace is not an accident.
It is protected.
Rwanda has built strong systems of security where citizens feel safe, supported by national institutions working together for stability and protection.

This environment of peace has created space for:

Growth
Investment
Innovation
Confidence in the future
Leadership With Vision
A nation does not transform without direction.

Under the leadership of H.E Paul KAGAME, Rwanda has focused on:

Accountability
Development
Technology
Citizen centered governance

The country has chosen discipline, long term planning, and responsibility.
And the results are visible.

A Model Of Development In Africa

Today, Rwanda stands as one of the fastest transforming countries in Africa.

In just a few decades, it has made remarkable progress:

Expanding access to education
Improving healthcare systems
Building modern infrastructure
Promoting digital innovation and technology
Encouraging entrepreneurship and youth empowerment
Kigali, the capital city, is often recognized for its cleanliness, organization, and forward thinking urban development.

But Rwanda’s progress is not only about buildings or technology
It is about people.

A Nation That Puts People First

Rwanda’s strength lies in its people:

Citizens who value discipline and responsibility
Youth who are ambitious and united
Institutions that prioritize service and development

Across the country, there is a culture of:

Hard work
Respect
Accountability
Collective responsibility

Everyone understands that:

Nation building is not the job of leaders alone
It is the responsibility of every citizen.

The Role Of Youth

Rwandan youth are at the center of this transformation.

They are:

Learning
Creating
Innovating
Leading
They are not waiting for the future
They are building it.

Organizations like YTV Africa Rwanda Youth Technicians For Vision Africa play a key role in this journey by:

Promoting media literacy
Encouraging critical thinking
Fighting misinformation
Building responsible digital citizens

Since 2015, this mission has focused on shaping minds and empowering young people to use media as a tool for development not destruction.

A Lesson For Africa

Rwanda’s story is not just Rwanda’s story.

It is a message to Africa:

A nation can rise again
Unity is stronger than division
Leadership matters
Youth are the foundation of progress
There is much to learn from a country that chose to rebuild with purpose and discipline.

Moving Forward With Responsibility

Progress should not create division.
It should inspire learning, cooperation, and shared growth.

Africa’s strength will not come from competition alone
But from collaboration.

From countries learning from each other.
From people supporting one another.
From a shared vision of a better continent.

Final Message

Rwanda’s journey teaches us something powerful:

A nation can go through the worst
And still become one of the strongest.

But it requires:

Truth
Unity
Discipline
Vision
And responsibility

Let us protect peace.
Let us build unity.
Let us move forward together.

Because:

A nation that stays united
Can overcome any challenge
And build a future full of hope.

Africa Is Ours: A Story Of Vision, Work, And Responsibility

In a small village somewhere in Africa, there was a young boy named Kofi.

Kofi had no money.
No connections.
No powerful background.
But he had something many people ignore:

A dream.

Every morning, he would wake up early and walk long distances to school.
Not because it was easy
But because he believed that education was the key to changing his life.
People laughed at him.

They said:

“You are wasting your time.”
“There are no opportunities here.”
“Africa is too difficult.”

But Kofi did not listen.

Because he understood something powerful:

A person who stops learning has already stopped growing.

The Turning Point

One day, Kofi noticed a problem in his community.
Farmers were producing crops, but they were losing money because they had no access to markets.

Instead of complaining, Kofi asked himself:

“How can I solve this?”

He started learning every day.
He used his phone to research.
He talked to people.
He observed.

Slowly, he created a simple idea:

A small digital platform connecting farmers directly to buyers.
It was not perfect.
It was not big.
But it was a start.

From Small Idea To Big Impact

At first, only a few people believed in him.
But Kofi kept working.
He improved his idea.
He learned new skills.
He failed and learned again.

Over time:

Farmers started earning more
Young people joined his project
His community began to grow economically
What started as a small idea became a movement.

The Lesson For African Youth

Kofi’s story is not just a story.
It is a mirror.

It shows us that:

You do not need to be rich to start
You do not need perfect conditions
You do not need to wait for permission

What you need is:

Vision.
Discipline.
Consistency.
And the courage to start.

Loving Work, Loving Africa

Many young people today are waiting for jobs.
But Africa is waiting for creators, not just job seekers.

We must learn to:

Create opportunities
Build solutions
Love work not avoid it

Because:

Hard work is not punishment
It is the path to freedom.
And when you work with purpose,
You are not only building your life
You are building your nation.

Africa Needs Its Youth

Let us be clear:

African youth are not the future
They are the foundation of Africa’s development.

If the youth rise:

Africa rises.

If the youth think:

Africa transforms.

If the youth unite:

Africa becomes unstoppable.

Discover Your Talent

Every young person has something inside them:

A talent.

A gift.

A unique ability.

But many ignore it.

Your responsibility is to:

Discover your talent
Develop it
Use it to solve problems
Because a talent that is not used
Is a life that is not fulfilled.

Never Stop Learning

In today’s world:

Learning is no longer limited to classrooms.

You must learn:

From books
From people
From experience
From technology

Remember this:

The day you stop learning
Is the day you stop growing.

Africa Is Ours

Africa is not for outsiders to build.
Africa is ours.
From our ancestors
To us
To the next generation.

We are the ones responsible for:

Transforming it
Developing it
Protecting it
We must stop complaining
And start building.

A Message To African Leaders

To our leaders our parents, our guides:

Listen to your youth.
Support their ideas.
Invest in their potential.
Create systems that allow them to grow.

A strong nation is built when:

Leaders and youth
Work together
With one vision.

Unity Is Power

If we work alone, progress is slow.

If we work together:

Nothing becomes impossible.

Let us unite as Africans:

Across countries
Across languages
Across cultures

Because our strength is in our unity.

Final Message

Kofi started with nothing
But he changed something.

And that is the message:

You do not need everything
To start something.
Start where you are.
Use what you have.
Build what you can.

Because:

Africa will not change by chance
It will change by choice.

And that choice belongs to you.

Technology And Responsibility: Building A Smarter And Safer Africa

We are living in a digital age where technology is no longer a luxury
It is a daily necessity.

From smartphones to social media, from online learning to digital business, technology has become a powerful force shaping our lives.

But one truth must guide us:

Technology itself is not good or bad
It becomes what we choose to do with it.

The Power Of Technology In Today’s Africa

Technology has opened doors that were once closed.

Today, it allows us to:

Learn from anywhere in the world
Start businesses with limited resources
Connect across countries and cultures
Share knowledge and ideas instantly
Empower youth, women, teachers, and leaders
For Africa, this is a great opportunity.

A tool that can accelerate development, innovation, and unity.

The Dark Side Of Technology

However, technology also has risks especially when used without awareness.

Today, we see:

The spread of fake news and misinformation
Online hate, cyberbullying, and division
Addiction to social media and unproductive content
Loss of cultural identity and values
Manipulation through harmful ideologies
We have already learned from history, including the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda 1994, that media and communication tools can be misused to spread dangerous ideas.

And today, social media can spread those ideas even faster.

A Message To All Users Of Technology

This message is for:

Youth
Women
Leaders
Teachers
Content creators
Every citizen using digital platforms
You are not just users of technology
You are influencers of society.
Every post, every video, every message has an impact.

How We Must Use Technology Wisely

To build a better Africa, we must use technology with responsibility:

Think before you post
Verify information before sharing
Create content that educates and inspires
Respect others online and offline
Avoid spreading hate, division, or harmful trends
Use digital platforms to learn and grow

Technology should be a tool for:

Education.
Development.
Unity.
Opportunity.

The Role Of Content Creators

Content creators have a special responsibility.
What you create influences thousands sometimes millions.

Ask yourself:

Does my content build or destroy?
Does it educate or mislead?
Does it unite or divide?

Because influence without responsibility is dangerous.

The Mission Of YTV Africa Rwanda

At YTV Africa Rwanda Youth Technicians For Vision Africa, we are committed to building a responsible digital generation.

Our Mission:

To educate youth through Media Literacy In The Classroom
To promote critical thinking and responsible media use
To fight misinformation and harmful ideologies
To empower young people with digital skills and values
To use media as a tool for positive transformation
Since 2015, we have been working to shape minds and build awareness across Africa.

Our Vision

Our vision is clear:

To raise a generation that is not controlled by technology
But a generation that controls technology for good.

A generation that:

Thinks critically
Acts responsibly
Builds unity
Protects truth

A Call To Africa

Africa does not need more consumers of content
It needs creators of value.

It needs people who use technology to:

Solve problems
Educate communities
Build businesses
Promote peace and unity

Final Message

Technology is a powerful tool.
In the right hands, it builds nations.
In the wrong hands, it destroys them.

The difference is not the tool
It is the mindset of the user.
Let us choose wisely.

Let us use technology to build, not to destroy.
Because:

The future of Africa is digital
But it must also be responsible.

How Media Can Destroy A Nation: A Wake Up Call For Africa’s Youth

In today’s digital world, media is one of the most powerful forces shaping society.

It informs.
It influences.
It connects.

But there is a truth we must not ignore:

The same media that can build a nation…
Can also destroy it.

Understanding The Power Of Media

Media is not just about news, entertainment, or social platforms.
Media is power.
It shapes how people think.
It shapes how people feel.
It shapes how people act.

When used responsibly, media can:

Educate millions
Promote peace
Unite communities
Inspire progress

But when used irresponsibly, it can:

Spread lies
Create fear
Divide people
Destroy trust

A Real Lesson From History

One of the clearest examples is the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda 1994.

Before and during the tragedy, media especially radio was used to:

Spread hatred
Dehumanize innocent people
Encourage violence
Manipulate the population
Repeated messages of hate slowly became accepted as truth.
And when people believe lies long enough,
They begin to act on them.

This is how media contributed to the destruction of a nation.

Example In Today’s World

Even today, we see similar dangers:

False information spreading quickly on social media
People sharing content without verifying
Influencers promoting harmful or misleading ideas
Online hate dividing communities

A simple rumor, when shared thousands of times, can:

Destroy someone’s reputation
Create panic
Cause conflict between groups
A lie shared widely can become more powerful than the truth.

How Media Destroys A Nation

Media destroys a nation when it is used to:

1. Spread Misinformation
False news confuses people and weakens decision-making.

2. Promote Division
Tribalism, racism, and hatred break unity.

3. Normalize Violence
Harmful ideas become accepted as normal.

4. Manipulate Minds
People stop thinking for themselves.

5. Destroy Trust
Citizens lose trust in each other and in institutions.

And when trust is broken
A nation begins to fall apart.

The Responsibility Of African Youth

Young people are the most active users of media today.

That means:

You are not just consumers
You are also influencers.
Every post you share…
Every message you forward…
Every comment you make…

Has the power to either build or destroy.

What You Must Do

To protect your nation, you must:

Think before you share
Verify information before believing it
Reject fake news and propaganda
Avoid spreading hate or division
Promote truth, unity, and peace

Ask yourself:

Is this true?
Is this helpful?
Is this building or destroying?

The Role Of YTV Africa Rwanda

At YTV Africa Rwanda Youth Technicians For Vision Africa,
we believe that change begins with awareness.

Since 2015, our mission has been clear:

To teach media literacy
To promote critical thinking
To fight misinformation
To prevent harmful ideologies
To build responsible African youth

Through Media Literacy In The Classroom,
we are shaping a generation that:

Understands media
Uses media responsibly
Cannot be easily manipulated

A Strong Warning

If African youth do not learn how to use media wisely:

Media will be used against them.

They will be misled.
They will be divided.
They will be controlled.

But if they understand media:

They will be informed.
They will be united.
They will be powerful.

Final Message

Media is not the enemy.
Misuse of media is the enemy.
A nation is not destroyed in one day.
It is destroyed slowly
Through lies, division, and silence.
But it can be protected
Through truth, unity, and responsibility.

The future of Africa depends on how you use media today.

Choose wisely.

Kwibuka32: A Week of Remembrance, A Lifetime of Responsibility

As Rwanda continues to observe the period of remembering the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda, we are reminded that remembrance is not only about the past

It is about shaping the future.
This week is not ordinary.
It is a time of reflection, learning, and commitment.

A time to understand the depth of what happened, and the responsibility we carry as Africans to ensure that such a tragedy never happens again anywhere on our continent.

Understanding The Danger:

Genocide Begins In The Mind

The Genocide Against the Tutsi did not start in 1994.

It began long before with ideas.
It began with division.
With discrimination.

With false teachings and manipulated identities.
History teaches us that harmful ideologies were introduced, spread, and normalized over time, until they led to destruction.

This is the most important lesson for every African youth:

Genocide is not an event. It is a process.
And that process begins in the mind.
That is why fighting genocide starts with fighting dangerous thinking.

Rejecting Genocide Ideology Across Africa

Today, we send a clear message to all African youth:

Reject hatred.
Reject division.
Reject any ideology that classifies people based on identity.
No African nation is immune if its people are not aware.

We must stand together and say:

No to tribalism
No to discrimination
No to dehumanization
No to propaganda and manipulation

Because when people are divided, they become weak.
But when they are united, they become unstoppable.

The Responsibility Of African Youth

Young people are not just the future
They are the present force of change.

We call on African youth to:

Learn the true history of their countries
Think critically before believing or sharing information
Use media responsibly to educate and unite
Stand against anyone promoting Genocide ideology
Promote peace, unity, and truth in their communities
We must not be silent.

Because silence allows dangerous ideas to grow.
Unity:

The Strength Of Africa

Africa will not rise through division.
Africa will rise through unity.
Let us stand together
Across tribes, nations, languages, and cultures.
Let us love our countries.
Let us love our continent.

Let us build a generation that says:

“We are different, but we are one.”

A Message To African Leaders

Leadership is not about privilege
It is about responsibility.
A true African leader must:

Put the people first
Serve with humility and integrity
Protect every citizen equally
Promote unity, not division
Lead with truth, not manipulation

A good leader does not eat before the people
A good leader sacrifices for the people.
Leadership must be a service, not a benefit.

A Reflection From Rwanda

In Rwanda, youth have learned from history.
We understand how dangerous ideology was introduced and spread.

We understand how it was taught, accepted, and finally executed.

And today, we stand with one voice:

Never Again.

Rwandan youth are guided and inspired by the leadership of H.E Paul Kagame , a leader who continues to prioritize unity, development, and the well-being of citizens especially the youth.

This leadership reminds us that a nation can rise again when guided by vision, discipline, and truth.

Our Commitment As A Generation

We, the youth of Africa, make this commitment:

To remember the past with truth
To reject all forms of genocide ideology
To stand against division wherever it appears
To protect unity in our communities
To educate others through truth and awareness
We will not allow history to repeat itself.
Not in Rwanda.
Not anywhere in Africa.

Final Message

Remembrance is not weakness.
It is strength.
It is the strength to face the truth.
The strength to learn.
The strength to protect the future.
Genocide ends when memory lives.
Peace begins when unity leads.
Let us remember.
Let us unite.
Let us act.

Because Africa does not need another tragedy
Africa needs a conscious, united, and responsible generation.

Media Literacy And Responsibility: Lessons From Rwanda For Africa’s Future

As we continue to remember the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda, we must confront a difficult but important truth:

Media was not only a witness to genocide
It was also used as a weapon.

This is a lesson not only for Rwanda, but for all of Africa.

When Media Becomes Dangerous

During the time leading up to and during the genocide, media platforms especially radio were used to spread:

Hate speech
False information
Division and fear
Dehumanization of innocent people
Messages were repeated again and again, until they began to feel like truth.
People were influenced.
Communities were divided.
And ordinary citizens were turned into participants in violence.

This teaches us a powerful lesson:

Information can build a nation
But it can also destroy it.
The Power Of Influence
Media shapes how people think.
If people hear lies repeatedly, they begin to believe them.
If they are taught to hate, they begin to act with hatred.

That is why:

Media is not neutral it depends on how it is used.
In the wrong hands, it becomes a tool of destruction.
In the right hands, it becomes a tool of education, unity, and peace.

The Role Of Media Literacy

This is where media literacy becomes essential.
Media literacy is the ability to:

Think before believing
Question before sharing
Analyze before reacting

A media-literate person asks:

Who created this message?
What is the intention behind it?
Is it true or manipulated?

Without these questions, people become vulnerable to manipulation.

The Mission Of YTV Africa Rwanda

This is why YTV Africa Rwanda Youth Technicians For Vision Africa was created.

A Media Literacy Broadcasting Agency for Youth, By Youth

With a clear mission:

To teach people how to use media in a positive, responsible, and transformative way.

Since 2015, we have been on a journey to:

Educate youth about responsible media use
Promote critical thinking
Fight fake news and misinformation
Prevent Genocide ideology and harmful thinking
Build a generation with a healthy mindset

Through our initiative “Media Literacy In The Classroom”,
we bring these lessons directly to young people where it matters most.

Building A Healthy Mindset

At YTV Africa Rwanda, we teach that:

A strong society begins with a strong mindset.

We guide young people to:

Reject genocide ideology in all its forms
Recognize and avoid fake news
Promote truth and verified information
Respect others regardless of identity

Use media to create opportunities and solutions
Because:

A healthy mind cannot be manipulated easily.

A Warning To African Youth

Today, the tools have changed but the danger still exists.

Social media can spread:

Hate
Lies
Division
Harmful influence
Faster than ever before.
That is why African youth must be more aware than ever.
Do not be used.
Do not be manipulated.
Do not spread what you do not understand.

A Call To Action

We call on every young African:

Be responsible with information
Verify before sharing
Reject harmful narratives
Promote unity and peace
Use media as a tool for development
Because the future of Africa depends not only on leaders
But on how its people think and communicate.

Final Message

Media can be a weapon.
Or it can be a tool for transformation.
The difference is you.
Let us choose truth over lies.
Unity over division.
Responsibility over carelessness.

Because:

A generation that understands media
Is a generation that cannot be manipulated.
And that is the Africa we are building.

Kwibuka 32: Remembering The Genocide Against The Tutsi A Message Of Truth, Unity, And Responsibility

Today, as Rwanda and the world remember the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda, we stand in a moment of deep reflection, truth, and responsibility.

April 7th is not just a date.

It is a reminder of a painful history
A history where over one million innocent lives were lost, not because of what they did,
But because of who they were born as.

The Truth We Must Never Forget

The Genocide Against the Tutsi was not an accident.
It was not sudden.
It was planned, taught, and executed through a dangerous ideology.
For years, the seeds of division, hatred, and discrimination were planted in the hearts of people.
The ideology of Genocide was spread through words, media, leadership failures, and manipulation of identity.
Neighbors turned against neighbors.
Friends turned against friends.
Humanity was lost.

This is why we must teach the truth:

Genocide begins in the mind before it is carried out by actions.

A Message Of Comfort And Compassion

To all survivors of the Genocide Against the Tutsi:
We remember you.
We stand with you.
We honor your strength.
Your pain is not forgotten.
Your stories are not erased.
Your resilience is a powerful testimony to the strength of the human spirit.
Even in the darkest moment, life continued.

And today, Rwanda stands because of your courage.
From Tragedy To Hope:

The Role Of Leadership

The genocide was stopped by the bravery and determination of the Rwandan Patriotic Front, under the leadership of Paul Kagame.

Their actions did not only stop the killings
They began the journey of rebuilding a nation that had been completely broken.

Since then, Rwanda has taken strong and clear steps to ensure that genocide never happens again.
Building Unity And Healing

Through initiatives like Unity Club Intwararumuri, founded by Jeannette Kagame, Rwanda continues to promote:

Unity among all Rwandans
Healing and reconciliation
Love, dignity, and shared identity
Today, Rwandans are no longer divided by ethnicity.
They are united as one people, one nation.
Education As Protection

Rwanda has invested in education that teaches:

The truth about Genocide
The danger of Genocide ideology
The importance of critical thinking and unity
Genocide did not end by chance
It ended because people stood against it.

And it will never return because a new generation is being taught to reject it.

A Message To African Youth

At YTV Africa Rwanda Media Literacy Broadcasting Agency for Youth, By Youth, we call on all young people:
This is a time of respect, reflection, and responsibility.

Do not use social media to:

Mock or disrespect survivors
Spread harmful or false information

Engage in careless entertainment during remembrance
Instead, use media to:

Educate others
Share truth
Promote unity and peace
Because media can either build or destroy.
And the choice is yours.
A Strong Message Of Hope
Genocide in Rwanda is over.

It was stopped.
And through strong leadership, unity, and education, it will never happen again.

Rwanda stands today as a symbol of:

Resilience
Transformation
Responsible leadership
Hope for Africa

We have leadership we trust.
We have a nation we love.
And we have a future we are building together.

Final Message

Remember. Unite. Renew.
Let us remember the past with truth.
Let us unite in the present with love.

Let us build a future where such tragedy is impossible.
Because:

A nation that remembers, learns, and stays united
Can never fall into the darkness again.

African Values And Media Literacy: Building A Responsible Generation

In a rapidly changing world driven by technology, information, and global influence, one truth remains constant:

A strong future can only be built on strong values.

At YTV Africa Rwanda Youth Technicians For Vision Africa, we believe that the transformation of Africa does not begin with technology, wealth, or infrastructure it begins with character.
And character is shaped by values.

The Foundation Of An African Identity

Africa is rich not only in resources, culture, and history, but also in moral principles that have guided communities for generations. These values are not outdated they are more relevant today than ever before.

A responsible and capable African youth must be guided by:

Respect For self, others, culture, and nation
Integrity Doing what is right even when no one is watching

Discipline The ability to control actions, time, and desires

Responsibility Taking ownership of one’s choices and future

Unity Understanding that strength comes from togetherness

Hard Work Rejecting shortcuts and embracing effort
Truthfulness Standing for facts in a world full of misinformation

These are not just ideals they are the pillars of leadership and success.

The Challenge Facing Today’s Youth

Today’s African youth are growing up in a digital environment filled with:

Endless information
Conflicting ideas
Misinformation and manipulation
Pressure to imitate unrealistic lifestyles
Without strong values, this environment can easily lead to confusion, distraction, and loss of identity.

Many young people are influenced more by trends than by truth…

More by popularity than by purpose…
More by external validation than by internal values.
This is where the danger begins.
The Role Of Media Literacy
Media literacy is not just about using technology it is about understanding it, questioning it, and using it wisely.

At YTV Africa Rwanda, we teach that:

👉 Not Everything You See Is True
👉 Not Everything Popular Is Valuable
👉 Not Everything Attractive Is Beneficial

A media-literate youth is able to:

Analyze information before believing it
Verify sources before sharing
Identify manipulation, propaganda, and fake news
Use digital platforms to learn, create, and grow
Media literacy protects the mind the same way education protects the future.

Values In The Digital Age

In today’s world, values must not disappear they must adapt and guide behavior online.

A youth with values:

Does not spread rumors or harmful content
Does not insult, bully, or divide others online
Does not waste time on meaningless content
Uses social media to educate, inspire, and create opportunities
This is what it means to combine African values with digital intelligence.

A Call To African Youth

The future of Africa will not be built by those who simply consume content
It will be built by those who stand for values and think critically.

We call on every young African to:

Protect your mind from harmful information
Choose knowledge over distraction
Build skills instead of chasing trends
Respect your identity and culture
Use media as a tool for development
Because Africa does not need a lost generation.
Africa needs a responsible, informed, and value-driven generation.

Our Mission And Vision

At YTV Africa Rwanda, our mission is clear:

To educate youth through Media Literacy In The Classroom
To promote critical thinking and truth-based information
To empower young people with digital skills and responsibility
To build unity and positive African values
Our vision is to raise a generation that is not controlled by information
But one that controls how information is used for good.

Final Message

Values are the compass.
Media literacy is the map.
Together, they guide the future.
A youth without values is vulnerable.
A youth without media literacy is misled.
But a youth with both is unstoppable.
