The conflict between hutu and tutsi?

The Difference between the Hutus and the Tutsis was based on European Imperialism. Rwanda was originally occupied by the Germans and then later the Belgians. The Europeans thought that the Tutsis were ethnically superior then the Hutus because of the fact that the Tutsis had lighter skin. This resulted in preferential treatment for Tutsis. The Hutus resented this special treatment. The Europeans made Hutus and Tutsis have identity cards with their race printed prominently on the pass. This was how the Hutus identified Tutsis during the genocide. In short the Hutus resentment of the Tutsis were caused by the Europeans that colonized Rwanda and their pseudo science. Also note that the Tutsis were the minority population but got more rights because of the color of their skin

How does the film Hotel Rwanda begin?

When the Belgians had control, they appointed the Tutsis to have power over the Hutu. That segregation led to the build up of anger and conflict. When the Beligians left, the Tutsis lost power and the Hutus took revenge on them by starting mass genocide.
