3/11/19

Today we began watching Hotel Rwanda as part of our study of modern conflicts in Africa.

Due Thursday 3/14 (as oppose to Wednesday as stated in class): Using at least 3 good academic sources, you will choose one of the conflicts below to research. You should be finding out the following information:
Get a general understanding of what the conflict is about and what took place. Then look at the global response. Analyze this action by looking at who was involved, what they tried to do, and how it went/why. Be ready to discuss the idea of the UN/global response to internal conflicts in Africa using evidence from your conflict. 

Take good notes on your conflict. Collect evidence and be sure to cite your sources. These can be used during our graded discussion on Thursday.

Possible conflicts:
  • Somalia
  • Sudan
  • Congo
  • Central African Republic
  • Mali
  • Ethiopia/Eritrea
  • Other major violent conflicts are acceptable if there was a global/UN response of some sort.
