Reflections on the debate-

For the first time in global Ed I got a glimpse of Simon. My sister says it was so much fun, and it is. If you work hard, study your person/country, and listen to their point of view this game will be easy, you also have to put in the time to do it because it takes a while. Simon is a game that you play politicians and you act out a problem that is or has happens and you try to solve it. And if we could do all the time in Global Ed. I might like coming to school.

I was the dear sister of Juvenal Habyarimana (who just got killed in a plane crash). My brother was president of Rwanda. He funded the radio station that warned the Hutus’ that the Tutsis was out to get them. He also made the MRND which turn their back on him. He died because when he was with a peace talk with Burundian president and the leader of RPF order the RPF to shot down the plane and they did.

I learned about some websites that I didn’t even know about is like BBC. I thought that there was only the New York Times and one and two other big news/stories tellers. And I also learned a lot about this genocide because I didn’t know anything before this. Like Rwanda is even a country, and about how the Hutu’s and the Tutsis hate each other very much. If we’re going to do this again in Mr. Fielder’s class I would like to do it.

In the game, I think the MRND, the RPF, Belgium, USA, and UN did the most talking because they had the most influential in it. Uganda, France, and another force that I forgot the named of was the middle because they did little parts of it. And Kagame and Habyarimana spook the shortest amount of times because Habyarimana was killed and the Kagame was… well… I don’t know really maybe because they were shy or had nothing to day about it.

I think my person had the most impact of it because we took over and he order to kill all those people and when he died it most have made the Hutus’ so mad that they went out and killed all those Tutsis, which I not mad at them at all because they were the one I think that started this genocide.
