Introduction
The death of thousands was started by the death of one. On April 6, 1994 President Habyarmana had his airplane shot down killing him and two other fellow Hutu leaders of the blamed (RPF) Rwanda Patriotic Front. Later on that day a radio message saying,” Cut down the tall trees” were the kick-off words to the mass murders of Tutsi civilians. Paul Rusesabagina were one of the few who stood up for the Tutsi even though he was a Hutu.
Here is Paul Rusesabagina and Don Cheadle who played Paul in the award winning movie Hotel Rwanda.
This is a picture of the autobiography "An Ordinary Man" about Paul Rusesabagina experience in Rwanda.
