    Remembering the Massacre at Srebrenica

    Twenty years ago, 8000 Bosnia Muslims were killed by Serbian forces in the city of Srebrenica. But that atrocity appears to be "only half over." Yesterday, US Ambassador to the United Nations  Samantha Power argued that it's time for the Security Council to formerly designate the massacre as "genocide."

    Twenty years ago, 8000 Bosnia Muslims were killed by Serbian forces in the city of Srebrenica. But that atrocity appears to be "only half over."

Sara Terry is a photographer who's helped to create a nonprofit called The Aftermath Project, designed to record what happens after the world has turned its gaze away.
