[Mitbaevents] Movies that Matter -- Ghosts of Rwanda -- Saturday

[David Gray]

Hi,

The MIT Baha'i Association is sponsoring a "Movies that Matter" night 
tomorrow in Sidney Pacific.  The video is "Ghosts of Rwanda", and there is 
a website that includes analysis regarding the genocide and excerpts of 
what we plan to show: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/ghosts/

Ghosts of Rwanda

A special PBS frontline documentary to mark the 10th anniversary of the 
Rwandan genocide -- a state sponsored massacre in which some 800,000 
Rwandans were methodically hunted down and murdered by Hutu extremists as 
the U.S. and international community refused to intervene.  Examines the 
social, political, and diplomatic failures that converged to enable the 
genocide to occur.

Ghosts of Rwanda offers a 10-year retrospective with interviews from key 
figures in the international community to reflect on the lessons they 
learned from their time in office during the Rwandan genocide.

6:30, Saturday 6/24 (snacks provided)
Sidney Pacific Seminar Room

The Baha'i club plans to meet from 5:45 - 6:30 to read Baha'i writings on 
the issue and others are welcome

Regards,

David
