"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

our challenge, i have to say, is brought into perspective by stories such as that told in the movie "Hotel Rwanda". It's promo phrase : "When the world closed its eyes, he opened his arms".

Edmund Burke wrote, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing".

Over 100 days in 1994, the African country of Rwanda was the site for the genocide of almost one million people. As the streets ran with rivers of blood, a large portion of the international community looked away. One man could not. "Hotel Rwanda" is the story of Paul Rusesabagina, a hotel manager in Rwanda who used his courage and cunning to shelter over a thousand refugees from certain death. The movie highlights the tension between the Hutu and Tutsi tribal people. As Rwanda descended in to horror we can only imagine, Rusesabagina risked his liberty and life to save those around him. It is the true story of one good man who jeopardised everything to do something.
