Presentation transcript:

Genocides Armenian Genocide: The government exterminated its minority citizens by killing able-bodied males in Turkey. The government also used massacre and forced labor. Darfur Genocide: Nearly 500,000 people were raped, murdered and tortured because of the Janjaweed Arab Militias. This occurred in Western Sudan—it was the first genocide of the 21st century. The Holocaust: Six million Jews and others were killed by the Nazi party and Adolf Hitler Rwandan Genocide: Around 1 million people (Tutsis) over the course of 100 days were killed by the Hutus and the government. Cambodian Genocide: Through executions, starvation, and forced labor nearly 2 million people died by the Khmer Rouge Communist Party—the communist party tried to centralize and nationalize the society of peasant farmers which was stopped by the Vietnamese. Bosnian Genocide: Many Muslim boys and men were targeted by the VRS and was under the euphemism of an ethnic cleansing campaign.

Agenda: Notes on genocide definition Genocide allegories Book club announcements Homework: Maintain a copy of your book club book by Friday, March 1st. Have your book in class with you. Go to my website for a link to an important video about the Holocaust. Take notes and be ready to engage in a quick discussion of the video.

Exploring Genocide Essential Questions: How do such atrocities happen? How do certain groups or individuals participate in genocide? Why study the Holocaust and other genocides? How can an individual make an impact on the world? Have we learned from history? How can empathy drive a movement for change?

Defining Genocide Not an official term until 1944. The term “genocide” was adopted by the UN Commission on Genocide Prevention in 1948. The US did not support the commission until 1988. Definition: The systematic and targeted killing of a specific group of unarmed people that is generally sanctioned by the government.

Name:_________________________ Genocide Allegories Directions: Read the picture book within your group and answer the following questions. Be sure to include textual evidence in the form of direct quotations and/or paraphrases to support your responses. Book title:____________________________________ Provide a one-sentence explanation of the text. How did the atrocities in the text happen? From what/whom does the negative influence to hurt others result? Who was targeted in the text? By whom were these groups/people targeted? How and why do certain groups or individuals participate in genocide? How is this represented within your picture book? How can an individual make an impact in the world (either positively or negatively)? How is this represented within your picture book?

Keep in mind… How are we going to divide up the work? How are we going to read the text? In groups? Individually? Who is going to present the information to the class? How are we going to answer the questions? How is the discussion going to flow? How will we work together collaboratively and effectively?
