so yesterday was nice- brunch then a party, followed by a suprise party which had some chaos surrounding it. I came home early due to tiredness and watched a movie.

Damn good, but quite depressing. Not only because it is touching, but because you are faced with how little you know about the genocide in Rwanda which occurred in 1994. The director is amazing- he really puts everything in context when he plays some newsclips from then including the news of Kurt Cobains death. Now prior to seeing Sometimes in April, I could tell you exactly where I was when I found out he was dead- but I didn't fully realize that during that time, in a mere three months a million people were butchered in Rwanda. Granted there was not a huge focus here in the media, but that is what pisses me off all the more. I should have known more than I did! I was in college at the time- in a center of learning and I still wasn't informed as I think I should be. Despite the hugely devastating nature of the movie, it is highly educational and a must see.


I am not sure what is more frustrating- the fact that our government sat there having discussions between acts of genocide and genocide, instead of going in and doing something about it ( clinton later apologized for his slowmoving stupid govt choices) or the fact that genocide occurred within my lifetime and I really missed it. Thank god they made this movie and Netflix for linking me to it, or I might have remained in ignorance...
