"we didn't know."
Cripes, that IS bullshit. That was barely an acceptable excuse during a world wide war in the 1930s/1940s; it is ludicrous on its face in the 1990s. Shoeshine boys knew what was going on in Rawanda, to my mind it was feckless racism pure and simple that caused no intervention here. The secret kind of acceptable racism, left-wing variety.
