Genocide Memorial

Today we went to the Genocide Memorial in Rwanda. It was really impactful to learn more about the genocide and what really happened; not just from the movie Hotel Rwanda. It was interesting to think that such hatred occurred during my life-time. People came to a point of wanting to get rid of a people group completely for one silly reason or another. The memorial also walked through other genocides that have happened throughout history. Maddy and I tried to figure out what we would have done if we were teaching in America or another part of the world. If we saw footage of something like this happening on the news. Would we continue to eat our breakfast and say, to bad for them? Or would we go and try to figure out a way to do something and help in anyway that we could? It is something to think about.
