This is Part One of the emotional history of neoliberal hyper-individualism by Adam Curtis. It’s a hard watch again, but I suggest to everyone to watch all of this. It makes you numb at first, but the conclusion at the end of Part Six gives some hope for the future. Believe it. Or not.
This is the story of the genocide in Ruanda 1994. 800000 people were slaughtered in 100 days, in eight hour shifts. The world knew it. And did nothing. The canadian General Romeo Dallaire of the UN Blue Helmets was there, but not allowed to step in.
This documentary is brand new, issued today. It’s a hard watch and I have to issue a multiple trigger warning. Violence, exploitation and neo-colonialism.
