Genocide Against the Tutsi

The genocide against the Tutsi was a devastating mass murder that took place in Rwanda in 1994, where an estimated 800,000 Tutsi people, along with moderate Hutus, were systematically killed over approximately 100 days. Driven by ethnic tensions and long-standing grievances, the violence was orchestrated by extremist Hutu factions, leading to widespread atrocities. This tragic event highlighted the destructive power of hatred and prejudice, and it prompted global reflection on the importance of preventing such atrocities through early intervention, education, and justice.
