I have been learning alot about genocide! I actually skipped out on watching the super boowl so that i coul dfinnish chapter 16 and 17 of Gourevitch.
Two things:
1.) in chapter 16 he talks about the Rwandan's lack of fine arts. Rwanda has literally NO fine arts. I believe fine arts is a way to express frustrations and outrage in a healthy and creative way( i.e. Satire, sketch comedy, play writing, painting, etc) Rwandan's only had politics to express themselves and that tends to be dangerous.
2.) I'm starting to understand more and more about how genocide happens. In Gourevitch, He states something about the mob mentality of blind submission to authority. I felt this explains alot in terms of how the Tutsi accepted their deaths.
please excuse my horrific typos. = )
I found this when looking for articles on the Rwandan Genocide.. I found this form of propoganda very interesting, i'm not sure its a topic i would like but I thought you might find it to be interesting, in part of our in class discussions.
I was going to ask you after class and I know you have to jet off to seattle. But I was wondering about a possible topic for my final paper. I was wondering could the dehumanization side of genocide, leaning towards the genocide involving Mahatma Ghandi, be to broad? If so how could I narrow this idea? well let me know what you think : )
You know our children better be learning...I don’t have any now so I wouldn’t know but for me I’d say 85% of the time. Now for Bush, I think that part of life for him was skipped...but if our children weren’t learning and really banking on the concepts of life, their lives as they know it and what’s considered very important and dumb and who to love or learn from and why to learn it or whom else to dump all that deposited knowledge on and in what way...this world would be a whole lot better as a whole not a half. Not everyone will be enthusiastic about accepting that whole conception, theory, thought or idea that maybe the world we live in turned out be a place some call h*** because of the people before them and those before them so on and so forth chose not on the nourishment and subsist of/on the earth with respect, love gentleness, knowledge and wisdom but f***ing strife and misconception, erroneous belief, death, the big boom, great depression, being broke…I guess that s*** beat it to it.

So,when we are posting a blog for 'discussions', where do we go?!?!? I suppose I can ask you tomorrow! So I'll plan on that... I'm still warming up to this site : )
