In 1994 there was a genocide in Rwanda. A Genocide is a killing of a large group of killing. Most of the reason being of this killing is because of race or ethnicity. In Rwanda it was also a gendercide, which is a killing of a specific race. They wanted to kill all of the men and boys, and wanted to leave the women and girls. The mass murder of 800,000 people, all of the differentiation of three groups. This is the Rwandan Genocide. Bodies littered the ground, children screaming, trying to hide. Men being slaughtered where they stood. Blood pouring out of bodies, forever tainting the earth with the bloody massacre. The “Tutsi”, “Twa” and the “Hutu” were the three races. “The Rwanda Genocide is said to be the most intense in all of human history. Few people realize, however, that the genocide included a marked gendercidal component; it was predominantly or overwhelmingly Tutsi and moderate Hutu males who were targeted by the perpetrators of the mass slaughter.” (Jones)  The Tutsi and the Hutu were the main ethnicity groups, having the most population of the three. The Hutu though had to most power because, the president of Rwanda was a Hutu. When President Habyarimana was traveling in a plane, which was shot down by a Tutsi. The Hutu reacted with locking the people in their homes, and killing some people on the spot. Women were being brutally raped while the men were being killed.  The Tutsi group ended up killing all of the Hutu’s and Twa’s and President Paul Kagame took control. The Rwanda Genocide ended in June of 1994. 800,000 men, women and children were killed that day in Rwanda, a country that should not be having that kind of conflict. Women were raped, and men were killed and tortured. Families were broken up and killed, and there were only a few survivors. Only taking three months to kill 800,000 is insane.
