Articles: Rwanda*

I read the article 10 years later in Rwanda, The dead are ever present and children of the genocide, both articles were very sad and touching. The author's tried to let others know how life was to the suffering people in Rwanda. There are children in Rwanda who live alone and have no parents, some live on the streets because adoption centers don't have enough room to keep every child, they are hoping to make a center to help people especially kids. The tragic that happened 10 years ago in Rwanda still has not been fixed, families still have no recovered.The articles impact me a lot, i am still in shock that people in Rwanda are still suffering from the tragic which happened 10 years ago, and thinking about recent tragedies in Haiti, i feel guilty because most people in British Columbia ,Canada are so lucky. The authors explains and gives a lot of facts which are tragic, they fit in vocabulary so we can picture things in our heads.

  1. I like how you have summarized the aritcles and then you mentioned that they impacted you. YOu mention that you can create a picture in your head with the words. How does teh author do that. Can you bring in examples of the workds teh author used to help create a picture in your head. What did it help you see. I also liked how you were able to make a connection to today.
