#RwandaGenocide: What happens when hate and lies are gradually nornmalised, leading to dangerous bigotted violence
April 7, 1994 - Genocide in Rwanda began. Over the following 90 days at least a half million people were killed by their countrymen, principally Hutus killing Tutsis.
This day is commemorated annually with prayer vigils in Rwanda.
Canadian General Romeo Dallaire, head of the U.N. Peacekeeping Force in Rwanda, a tiny African nation formerly a Belgian colony, had warned of impending slaughter, but was ordered not to attempt to intervene.
After the #RwandaGenocide, the country has made efforts to transcend the divisions that had torn the nation asunder. With a stable political landscape, sound security and a commitment to transparent governance, Rwanda has achieved remarkable development in recent years.
A flame of remembrance has been set to burn for 100 days since April 7 as a solemn tribute to the #RwandaGenocide in 1994.
The genocide, tearing apart communities of Hutus and Tutsis, found its roots in the colonial policies of Western powers.
It is 30 years since western governments, although using the term genocide privately about the developing death toll of Tutsis in Rwanda, refused to say it in public to avoid their duty in international law to intervene.
Many countries said 'never again' and that we should learn the lessons for the future.
Memories are short.

Many people in the west still think that the #RwandaGenocide (30 yrs ago) happened because of 'tribalism'. They forget that it was actually the Belgian colonizers and their imposed racist policies who were the root causes for this tragedy, as this new documentary by Samuel Ishimwe shows.

Trettio år efter folkmordet i Rwanda erkänner Emmanuel Macron att Frankrike och övriga västvärlden hade kunnat stoppa massmorden på minst 800 000 människor – men aktivt valde att inte göra det.
Det är ett svek som präglat en hel värld. Men frågan är vad vi lärt av det.

Caution: Could be triggering for some. Please take care
🕊️ Today, 29 years since the Rwandan genocide began, we should all pause to reflect on the enormity of this tragedy. In the face of unspeakable darkness, we should honour the indomitable spirit of survivors & commemorate those who were so cruelly snatched away.
May the weight of history fortify our renewed resolve to see a world truly free from the shadow of hatred and oppression.
From 🏴 with 💙 💛 💚
