in a country named Rwanda in Africa was taken over by the Hutu people on April 7th, 1994 which lasted till July 18th,1994. before the genocide started, the Rwandan people were in a civil war which didn't help the problem, all it did was make it worse. 800,000 people lost there lifes in just 1 year. Hutu people were against Tutsi people for there religion, and how they were controlling the government before the Hutu people took over the government. the Hutu people would slaughter Tutsis in mass murders, most of the time 1,00 to 10,000 people at a time. this all started from a mysterious assassination of the Rwandan president the got shot down from a plane.

how did the tutsis react to the genocide?

tutsis reacted many different ways in the genocide, according to Britannica school "Radio broadcasts further fueled the genocide by encouraging Hutu civilians to kill their Tutsi neighbors, who were referred to as “cockroaches” who needed to be exterminated. It is estimated that some 200,000 Hutu participated in the genocide many tutsis fled to neighboring countries and later came back after the genocide ended." this evidence supports my guiding question because many tutsis died together and many Tutsi fled to neighboring countries showing they had different options on what to do.

there were many reasons the hutus chose the tutsis to eliminate and to why the genocide started. britannica school quotes that during this period, "On April 6, 1994, however, Habyarimana and the president of neighboring Burundi were killed in a suspicious airplane crash. Immediately following Habyarimana's death, massive violence erupted, and some 800,000 people, primarily Tutsis, were systematically massacred with the encouragement and support of the government. also they were targeted because of different religion." this evidence shows that tutsis were targeted for many different reasons. and were held responsible for how many tustis died in the mass killing.
