Genocide in Africa

by: Laci Field

The issue is Genocide

 

What is Genocide?

when tribes kill other tribes because they don't like them or they want them to be gone.

What makes genocide important in Africa?

Because it hurts the people.

Why is Genocide a problem in Africa?

Because it effects the population and kills the people.

How does the government play a role in Genocide?

It was not very help full at first but it pulled together and helped the people.

 What is the global reaction to Genocide?

The international war crimes tribunal established in 1993 also prosecuted war crimes committed in the African nation of Rwanda during a bloody civil war in 1994. In May 1996, the tribunal began proceedings in Arusha, Tanzania, against suspects charged in connection with the genocide of 500,000 people during ethnic fighting between the Hutu and Tutsi tribes. Nearly 2,000 Hutus had been accused of playing direct roles in massacres that claimed approximately 500,000 Tutsi lives during a three-month span in the summer of 1994. Additionally, more than 85,000 Hutus had been incarcerated for other crimes related to the massacres.
 

How would you attempt to fix or correct this?

I would help the people by hiding them and sending the military and doctors.
