Bell Ringer 5/6/15
• Describe what happened in the portion
of “Hotel Rwanda” that we watched
yesterday.
**Grab a textbook under your desk and
put it in a stack in front of my room**
What do you think ‘genocide’
means?
The deliberate killing of a large group of
people, especially those of a particular
ethnic group or nation
On a separate sheet of paper
Think!
• Predict what you think caused a genocide
in Rwanda in the 1990’s!
Reading time!
Background Info
• There were two ethnic groups in Rwanda
called Tutsi and Hutu.
• When the Europeans came and colonized the
terms Hutu and Tutsi became racial terms.
They thought the Tutsi had more European
characteristics in their appearances.
– Lighter skin and they were taller.
• They put Tutsis in control and they were
‘superior’.
Background Info
• The Tutsi only made up about 10 % of the
population of Rwanda at that time.
• The Hutu made up about 90% of Rwanda.
• The Hutu were upset that the Belgians left
the Tutsi in charge.
Background Info
• Rwanda struggled for independence from
Belgium. The Belgians switched the roles
of the groups and now left the Hutu in
charge. This upset the Tutsi.
• The Hutu were now in charge of the
government.
• The animosity between the two groups
continued for decades.
Background Info
• In 1994 the president of Rwanda was
returning from Tanzania. His plane was shot
down by a missile.
– He was a Hutu that ran a totalitarian government.
– He later changed it so that Tutsi had more say in
the government. This angered the Hutu.
• It has not been determined who was
responsible for the death of the president.
Read the Background Information Worksheet
• On your own paper complete the following:
1. Draw a timeline of the history of Rwanda, starting
with the first Tutsi king.
2. True or False: If FALSE, write a correct sentence.
1. The Tutsi ruled over the Hutu for more than 100 years.
2. There are more Hutus than Tutsis in Rwanda.
3. Belgium was given control of Rwanda after World War II.
4. Identity cards made it easier to know whether someone
was Hutu or Tutsi.
5. The Belgians treated the Hutu and the Tutsi the same.
6. Fighting between the Hutu and the Tutsi began after
Rwanda was given independence from Belgium in 1962
Identification cards
Hotel Rwanda
• A five star hotel manager, Paul
Rusesabagina, sets out to save his family.
But when he sees that the world will not
intervene in the massacre of minority
Tutsi, he finds the courage to open his
hotel to over 1,200 refugees.
Genocide Tree
• Roots- causes
