    Genocide News Project

    You are tasked with becoming a journalist and reporting on a genocide


    that has occurred (or is still occurring). You will need to present this
    news report as either a newspaper front page or as a video news report.
    You can report on the genocide in past tense (if it ended) or can
    approach it as if you are living during that time period reporting on the
    events as they are unfolding.

    Genocides to choose from:


    - Myanmar
    - Darfur
    - Bosnia (Serbrenica)
    - Holodomor
    - Nigeria
    - Cambodia
    - Syria
    - Uyghur (China)

    Need to include the following:


    What is the CAUSE of this genocide? What factors caused this to
    happen?
    Information on the stages of genocide that are present in the example
    you’ve chosen
    Impact overall of the genocide. How have people suffered as a result of
    changes made?
    Short and long term consequences of this event
    Why should people care that this happened (or is happening)?
    The reader or viewer should be compelled to care because of how you present
    the information!
