Hotel Rwanda
Has anyone seen this movie? When we were in Africa last year, I was trying to buy something to read in the airport as we were getting ready to fly back home. I found a book called, "An Ordinary Man" and snatched it up right before the plane left. It was such an amazing story, but I didn't realize that it was the true story that "Hotel Rwanda" was based on. Tonight, Zac and I finally watched the movie and it made me cry at the cruelty of people and how America just turned their backs on them.
Zac has been assigned to read this same book before he starts college at MTSU this year. Then Paul R. (can't spell his name) from the story is going to speak at their orientation session on Sunday the 26th. I wish I could be there to hear him!! He saved over 1200 people from being slaughtered in the genocide in 1994 by hiding them in his hotel.
