What is going on here?

Yehuda Bauer's quote, "Thou shalt not be a victim, thou shalt not be a perpetrator, but, above all, thou shalt not be a bystander," emphasizes the responsibility we have in the face of injustices. Historical atrocities, such as the Armenian Genocide and the Rwandan Genocide, remind us that silence and inaction contribute to the suffering of others. In today's world, we must recognize our role in speaking out and intervening against oppression and cruelty, making it vital to educate ourselves on these issues to foster a compassionate society.

  2. Quote "Thou shalt not be a victim, thou shalt not be a perpetrator, but, above all, thou shalt not be a bystander."  -YehudaBauer Take 1-2 minutes to read and make notes on this quote individually.

  3. Data Retreival Example #1 Armenians are an ethnic group that originally lived in the Caucasus Mountains on Turkey’s northern border. They were a Christian minority within the Ottoman Empire. Beginning in 1915, the Ottoman Empire devised a plan to rid the country of the Armenian population. First the Ottomans rounded up Armenian intellectuals and community leaders. Next, the military displaced Armenian families from their homes and forced them to march hundreds of miles out of Turkey without food or water. Overall, due to starvation and brutal executions, up to 1.5 million Armenians were killed.

  4. Example #2 The Tutsis and Hutus are two ethnic groups living in the African nations of Rwanda and Burundi. Following the assassination of the Rwandan President in 1994, the majority Hutu-led government began a campaign to exterminate the minority Tutsi population. The Hutu government coordinated a campaign for quick and efficient killing. First, they organized units of national and local military to kill Tutsi and moderate Hutu families in their own villages. In addition, the government used mass-media radio broadcasts to urge Hutu civilians to kill their Tutsi neighbors. Over the course of 100 days, approximately 800,000 Tutsi and moderate-Hutus were massacred and as many as 2 million civilians fled the country as refugees.
