The 1994 massacres of nearly 1,000,000 Tutsis by Hutus, known as the Rwandan Genocide





Kikuyus in Kenya in 2008 by the Govt. lead by Obamas cousin

In 2003, Sinafasi Makelo, a representative of Mbuti Pygmies, told the UN's Indigenous People's Forum that during the Congo Civil War, his people were hunted down and eaten as though they were game animals. Both sides of the war regarded them as ';subhuman'; and some say their flesh can confer magical powers. Makelo asked the UN Security Council to recognise cannibalism as a crime against humanity and an act of genocide





Expulsion of white farmers by the Mugabe regime in Zimbabwe in 2000
