Do We Really Learn From the Past?

When Americans first learned about the horrible genocide that occurred in Rwanda, many of us shook our heads in shame and asked ourselves: why? Why were we so uninformed about the situation? Why was the U.N. so slow to react? Why didn’t we do more? Unfortunately, a situation all too familiar is ( Read more... )

I agree!

Its sad that we will end up turning into the world police, but maybe this will encourage people to instate a better United Nations, resembling a government for the people of the world, and not as just an uneasy alliance to keep countries in balance.

as usual, you're not impressed with me. i didn't read it. i'm sure your sentence structures were amazing and you're facts right on like always.

i'll read it when i'm on free internet (not 5 hour limit per month then we charge you a million dollars for every minute you go over plan).

beautiful paper, lauren.

I actually thought it was something published that you copy/pasted to share with folks, until i got to the bottom and you said "one paper down..." :)

However i feel obligated to point out that though the U.S. is the "savior" of all these suffering people, the U.S. is also guilty of these same acts of genocide regarding the Native Americans. Our hypocritical country needs to face up to its own deeds before it can truly help others that suffer the same problem. Once we understand the WHY we can fix the problem - when we understand WHY we killed all the native americans, we will have a better understanding of WHY these people are killing someone too. And then we will be in a better position to do something about it.

But awesome paper nonetheless :) I'm sure it'll get an A!
