An ordinary man
I went to hear Paul Rusesabagina speak at the Maine Center for the Arts tonight. Rusesabagina is the hotel manager whose story was told in Hotel Rwanda. Outside, we were greeted by people handing out literature claiming that Rusesabagina was promoting hate and not supporting the changes that were coming to Rwanda. The hall was fairly packed, with some overflow into the balcony. I took notes while he spoke: for the remainder of this post, I’ll give them to you more or less as I got them: since I didn’t properly hear everything he said, any attempt to clean them up may just make them worse.
