This was a particularly ugly slice of history. The Hutu government of the time orchestrated and incited the attacks on the minority Tutsi. But they were carried out largely by the people themselves. The killing was intensely personal; the machete was the weapon of choice. Farmers killed their neighbors. Doctors killed other doctors. Students killed their fellow students. Even some priests helped to kill large swaths of their congregations. Later, there were reprisal killings. Rwanda is now struggling to answer a very tough question: Is reconciliation truly possible in the wake of such barbarity?

I have some tutsi friends and I asked him how did u guys overcame what the hutus did.
and he said; "We pretend like nothing happened, but the wounds are still fresh"
He also said, "the president makes sure 80% of the army is tutsi and all foriegn exchange students are also tutsi"
