New Findings
A current world event I have a strong opinion about is the situation among Rwanda. Recently, a parliamentary investigation found that there was what they call "genocide ideology" present in some schools in Rwanda. They found that in some cases, student were forced to wear different uniforms according to their ethnicity. Also found, were books inciting hatred. December of 2007's parliamentary report said that there were old books "distorting history" found in libraries. For instance, some of the books claimed that Tutsi's should not be considered Rwandan. Poems promoting hatred and division were also found in libraries.
What Would Happen
There have been many worried people, stating that if ethnic diversity is visible in schools, the situation could be much worse in homes. I believe that this situation effects the world greatly. Over 800,000 people died in the 1994 genocide. If that were to ever happen again, there would be many emotions and opinions being tossed around. It would have a large impact on the world.
