Talked a little about semester tests.
The semester test blog is worth 10% of the test.
All the questions must be answered in the semester test blog so you can put all the information down and use your blog as a study guide.
Went over the aisa map.
Moving on to blog discussions over Darfur and Rewanda. (not sure if spelled right)
Rewanda (still not sure if spelled right)
- genocide is between hutu and tutise people
- 800,000 people were killed
- the hutus are the bad guys because they were the ones who did the killing
- the hutu wanted to take over the tutise leader
- the plane crash with the leader the hutus blamed the tutise people when it was really the hutus fault
- when the belgums controlled rewanda they liked the tutise people better
- it was durring a very racist time
- the tutise people were seen as more european
- they had id cards to tell if they were hutus or tutises
- hutus stay and take over after everyone else leaves
- the airplane crash was the starting of the killing
- 800,000 people in 100 days
- if you are a hutu trying to help the tutises you were seen as a trader
- the weapon of choice was machette
- if you look up rewanda you will see a lot of people dead on the streets
- the UN had a mission to end the civil war but ended in a failure
- the united states did nothing to help
- it was one of the biggest regrets
- the tutise ends up winning and the hutus are pulled out
- this left a lot of people dead
- they did this because they hated the tutises because they were the better people
Now we are going to watch a video called Hotel Rewanda.
