Genocide: 1994 Rwanda

When: April 1994 How Long : 100 days How Many: almost 1,000,000 people Methods: hacked to death with machetes and nail-studded clubs; killed with guns; beaten, tortured, abused and left to die, infected with HIV/Aids.

The Machete

Reason for Genocide  Historic conflict: Minority Tutsi (19%) versus Majority Hutus (80%)  For centuries, two groups lived comfortably—shared common language and intermarried  European Legacy: Originally under German control, but after WWI, Rwanda fell under Belgium control.

Reason for Genocide  European Legacy: Favored the minority Tutsi as “superior people” because of their lighter skinned more European appearance

The colonists believed that the Tutsi were natural rulers, so they put only Tutsis into positions of authority and discriminated against Hutus and Twa.

The size of the nose and the color of the skin and eyes were factors that determined whether a person was classified as Hutu or Tutsi.

Reason for Start of Genocide  Hutu dictatorship took control upon independence  April 6, 1994: Hutu presidents of both Rwanda and Burundi killed in plane crash

 Hutus suspect Tutsi involvement in crash and begin systematic killing of the Tutsi  Rwandan “Radio 10” directed fighting and inflamed hatred through statements such as “The graves are not yet full. Who will help us fill them?”

Interahamwe—Paid Warriors Deliberately sent to kill far from their own homes Less likely to meet friends, neighbors or family so less inclined to show mercy or hesitancy during massacre.

United Nations Involvement “Monitoring” mandate To intervene would have breached the mandate Majority of 2,500 peacekeeping mission were withdrawn after 10 Belgian soldiers were killed.

United Nations Involvement Airlifts of European and Americans in Rwanda are undertaken. No Rwandans are rescued. In Mid-May—the UN votes to send 50 armored personnel carriers, but nothing is sent for almost a month— disagreement over cost of the deployment.

Genocide and the Economy Rwanda

Rwanda faces major economic difficulties Severe lack of educated and skilled professionals, individuals to run companies or government infrastructure. 70% of the population of Rwanda live below the poverty line.

Writing Think about a time you witnessed an injustice. Explain. Did you consider intervening to stop the injustice from happening? What influenced your decision for action or inaction? Would you react differently in the future?
