go back to eating their dinners


Hotel Rwanda


i watched "Hotel Rwanda" last night, was one of the most amazing films i have ever seen, i laughed, i cried, and i don't want to say much more. It is a tragic story really, and a true one.
The question is, "is a similar thing happening/happened with Sudan, and what is being done?"
if you haven't seen Hotel Rwanda yet i engourage you to do so.
if you don't know much about the situation in Sudan, check out UN Sudan

Hotel Rwanda really is agreat story, i have never seen anything like it.
"and then they go back to eating their dinners"

    Yeah we watched it 2 weeks ago. Sobering film hey? The thing that I liked was that we first had african dinner, wore afrcian style clothes, listend to african music and looked @ African art. A chance to enjoy the culture, and celebrate it as beautiful. I think it heightened the sense of grief I felt while watching the movie, but also gave a glimmer of hope.

    yeah the scene that really struck me was not one where there was violence or death. It was the injustice, and shame of the west.
