Last year and the year before there were two very good films on
Rwanda, "Hotel Rwanda" and something about "Dogs" ... I forget the
title now.
In both these movies it was plain that the west considered the
genocide relatively unim****tant because they were "just Africans" .
In the latter movie, a woman journalist said that during the Serbian
crisis she cried every day because those women could have been her
mother, but in Rwanda they were just dead Africans.
I think this is the problem in Zimbabwe now. No-one cares about
Africans. Not even other Africans. Maybe especially not other
Africans. South Africa certainly can't hold its head up high about
the way Zimbabwean refugees have been treated in this country, about
"quiet diplomacy" or Mbeki's further oddities relating to Zimbabwe.
