respect for human rights

I've heard it from friends for a long time, but I haven't watched it for fear that it will be too bloody or even too heavy. Surprisingly, there isn't a lot of rendering in the movie.
There has always been a lot of coverage of ethnic conflicts in Africa, but as the white reporter in the film said, most people just watched it, oh, what a pity, and then continued to enjoy dinner. Just as the Hutu people and the Tutsi people are almost indistinguishable, as a species, the differences between races are very small, regardless of skin color, ethnicity, or beliefs, the pursuit of beautiful things, the dependence on family affection, the The yearning for truth is the same, more fundamental, for human beings as an individual, human rights, the most basic, respect for the right to existence must be universal. Any act that deprives others of their right to life will not be tolerated unless the state apparatus is in accordance with secular laws.
It seems that Africa is far away from us, but the disrespect for the right of human beings has never been far away, whether it is a crazy political movement or a bloody conflict between nations. The so-called worship of violence by revolutionaries has produced batches of "hot-blooded young people" and middle-aged and elderly people, thinking that war can solve all problems, but everyone knows that almost all wars are barbaric, and every war is a violation of human rights. Contempt, behind it is another version of Hotel Rwanda.
Every time I see that kind of passionate "resist XX", clamoring for a war with XX, I understand that ignoring people's right to exist as an individual is not far from us.
I hope that the day will come when humans evolve to resolve all conflicts without violently depriving others of their human rights.

    I tried to put myself in that environment, feeling the cruelty that was too late to despair and lost in time. Paul's various reactions are not necessarily great, and the film did not deliberately strengthen his heroic image. They all stem from human instinct. What I feel is more disgust, and always keep the disgust of slaughter the most!

    War, human nature, emotions, children, and African-themed movies are all about to make a complete set. Note: It’s amazing to see the funny version of Don Cheadle in "Eleven Arhats"~~

Hotel Rwanda quotes

  • Paul Rusesabagina: I am glad that you have shot this footage and that the world will see it. It is the only way we have a chance that people might intervene.

    Jack: Yeah and if no one intervenes, is it still a good thing to show?

    Paul Rusesabagina: How can they not intervene when they witness such atrocities?

    Jack: I think if people see this footage they'll say, "oh my God that's horrible," and then go on eating their dinners.

    [pause]

    Jack: What the hell do I know?

  • Colonel Oliver: [explaining why the world will not intervene] You're black. You're not even a nigger. You're an African.
