Hotel Rwanda

According to the sources and the film, how did individuals, groups of people and the world community fail the people of Rwanda?

The people failed Rwanda in many different ways, because even the groups that were supposed to help them did not succeed. These U.N soldiers were mostly what the Rwandans were counting on and they did not help. They had failed because they did not believe that things could be fixed in Rwanda. Then they backed out on Paul just because they didn’t think he would succeed which was because he was a black African. These U.N groups thought he was ‘dirt’. When the soldiers came, all the Rwandans were so happy to see themselves on the verge of being rescued but even after that, these soldiers walked away, leaving them helpless. Also, their own kind failed themselves. Just because the people of Rwanda were separated into two groups, the whole country was in war with one another. Even the Rwandans that were supposed to help each other did not want to help. The staff of the Hotel Rwanda did not want to listen to Paul because their Boss was no longer there. This was a way of failing the people of Rwanda. Also, just the world community failed to help because there were many clips on news that showed how bad things were in the country and how people were getting shot and killed. Even though these clips were on news, no one had really helped. All people spared for them were pity and that would not help them in anyway unless something was done about it. Ladies with little puppies in their hand just walked out of the hotel leaving pity for the people and climbed on to the buses which would save them. When they go back, they will still be at their rich places when these Rwandans stay here getting no help. Also countries from the outside sending these weapons with everyone being allowed to just come in to take these weapons. Just sending these in the first place was a failure. This helped the ways for Hutu to control over the Tutsi.
