Tutsis Versus Hutus

The Rwandan Genocide was a mass killing of about 1,071,000 Tutsis and Hutus in Rwanda. The Hutu militant groups organized a killing spree of such gargantuan scale that even their moderate tribespeople had been murdered. The Hutus were considered the "lesser" Rwandans who were less favored in the country, called the Bantu, while the Tutsis belonged to the more noble race called Hamites. Of course, if you were a Hutu, you would think otherwise and drive out the foreign invaders. Ethnic rivalry is a single powerful cause of this belated African massacre.
