I am going to blog about the United Nations’ definition of genocide, in relation to the genocides taking place currently in Darfur, Rwanda, and Sudan. As there are over 1.8 million lives that have been displaced in these nations, the United Nations continuously has refused to act upon this injustice.
This is a good topic as it brings a silent issue which goes unspoken of to light and instigates awareness among the world. I have been interested in this topic for many years after hearing about this issue in a Global Issues class. This topic would be intended for an audience of anyone unaware of this problem, and those who would maybe become involved to speak out. I have read about many instances of mass murders and brutality towards groups of people, all demonstrating the extremity of these genocides. However, unless recognized by governments across the world, these silent killings will continue.
