Bosnian Genocide

The 1994 Rwandan genocide was the result of an economic crisis, civil war, population growth and a struggle for state power. Rwanda’s population of more than 7 million people is divided into three ethnic groups, the Hutu roughly 85% of the population, the Tutsi (4% and the Twa 1%. The 100 days of violence resulted in the deaths between 500,000 and 1 million people of Rwanda's population had been killed, mostly by the Hutus. The Rwandan genocide has often been portrayed as an inevitable ethnic…

his brother? Does history repeat itself, as Cain killed his brother Abel, we kill our brother once again? I was only five years old at the time, growing up in the city of Kigali. My Mama Igna took care of me and my sister Shereen. Life before the genocide was incredibly fun. Me and my peers would play soccer on the rooftops. My Mama Igna had her own restaurant across from my day care. My Mama would sell her famous urwagwa, a beer made from the fermented juice of bananas that has been mixed with…

Hutu and Tutsi peoples, known as, the Rwandan genocide. Paul Rusesabagina, who plays as Don Cheadle, is a Hutu. He is the manager of Hotel des Mille Collines and lived with his wife Sophie Okonedo, whom was a Tutsi, and their three children. When the Hutu military forces started a campaign for ethnic cleansing against the Tutsi minority, Paul and his family watched neighbors get beaten and killed in the streets. Which demonstrated early stages of genocide. Paul later takes in refugees to his…

of millions of people. Unfortunately, in 1994 in the African country of Rwanda, that is precisely what happened. The death of the Rwandan President, Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu, is what sparked the genocide in 1994. Blamed for this was the current President, Paul Kagame, who at the time of the genocide was the Leader of a Tutsi rebel group, and his close partners for carrying out of the death of the president. After this tensions were high and did not end until three months later resulting in…

As everyone knows, on the TPLF's manifesto outline showed that apart from capitalism and imperialism, the number one enemy of the Tigray people is Amhara. Actually, this is a pattern of massively murdering and displacing the Amharas for the last 27 years by the TPLF and its agents in every region in the country, but the recent gruesome massively attacked and cut off the young boy's private flesh in Benishangul is very disturbed and savagely cruel. This barbarous act emphatically shows that the…

What do you think of when you think of genocide? Most of you probably think of the Holocaust where the Jews were the target of the Nazis. Often many people forget about the genocide that happened about 15-20 years before that. The Armenian Genocide was the Ottoman Empire's destruction of the Armenian Christian population. This was at the fall of the Ottoman Empire. The Armenian Genocide is a forgotten genocide because it is not recognized by many nations but it did have its impact on the country…

A Hollywood feature film called Hotel Rwanda not only brought out the sentimental side of me but allowed me to get the basic understanding of what the idea of imperialism can do to a country – in this case Africa. In this movie, Paul’s main concern is for him family. His primary goal is to save his wife, a Tutsi, and must go to great lengths simply to keep her with him. However he realizes that it is more than his family. It was scary to comprehend the enormity of the situation in Africa when we…

The Rwandan Genocide was a mass murder of all the Tutsi people in Rwanda. It began April 6th 1994 when the president, Juvenal Habyarimana, died when his plane was shot down by a Tutsi rebel group. The genocide took out nearly 1 million Tutsi people, which is about 3/4 of the Tutsi population. Before Rwanda gained independence they were ruled by the Belgians. The Belgians believes that Tutsis were superior to Hutus which is why when they were in charge, the Tutsis were put in power. When Rwanda…

Frank Human nature. During the holocaust and Genocide in Rwanda killed 6,800,000 died. During 1994 in Rwanda was when the genocide began. There are some good and bad sides of human nature and in Anne Frank and Hotel Rwanda give us very good examples. In the country of rwanda the Hutus and the Tutsis were at war because the Hutus didn't like how the Tutsis were favored more by the Belgians because they were lighter so in the movie the Hutus began a Genocide in 1994. In the movie you see good and…

On The Edge of Genocide The violence in Myanmar, formerly Burma, against the Rohingya Muslims is debatable. Some may call it the fault of fake media, but some may consider it on the brink of genocide. The violence in Myanmar should be considered on the verge of genocide as innocent people are being killed, villages and homes are being destroyed, and people are being forced to leave their homes and families to escape. The first piece of evidence that shows that there is a genocide threat to…
