Response #3

 Fofo Kpee proverty and vainity contributes unthinkable actions from the hopes of greed. In africa the proverty is not much of a suitable living condition in most areas. And where Fofo is from so happens to be a lack of resources. In these condition people usually become mercenaries. When he puts them on the boat he does not see them as human but money. His vanity gets in the way of his Profit. The cash that he is awarded seems to push him to keep going. The contributes that he had are the attributes of a seller.
        His pangs of conscienceness does not do anything for me. Because overall he is contributing in human trafficking. There is no possible way for him to be creditable by me as a conscience person. I feel as of he was just preparing them for what's on the road ahead. ” he boarded up the windows”(67) he was trying to make it hot so they can get use to the heat. In a way I find it to be mocking. Overall he is a tainted man who needs to be stopped.

Redundant hw.... CHOICE LOL

Now in our society killing another person is something that is automatically a wrong thing. Having to kill someone in order to save another person’s life can be a time where the rule of “killing is wrong” is bent. Killing someone is a wrong no matter what the circumstances are. It is never a question, if taking someone’s life is right or wrong, it’s just supposed to be an automatic objective in our minds that it is wrong. If it wasn’t a wrong thing to do people would never get in trouble for doing it, but that’s not the case because people do get in trouble by those who are superior to us.

Maman being killed was something that they had planned to do if it came down to it. They had this idea of what was going to happen if the mob had found them together because they knew it was the only way to save their children. In this case having to kill Maman is a moment where the rule of “killing is wrong” can be bent. It’s the choice to take one life, so two lives can grow.  Monique’s father’s choice in action was more pressured then a choice. He was forced to kill the women he loved to save their children, so his actions cannot be considered as a choice. There were other choices he could have made that might have ended with different results, because he knew if he didn’t kill his wife he would have to see someone else kill her, and then they would kill him and the children. Killing someone is never a good thing, because it is ending a life, but for this case that was a hard choice to kill someone you know and love to save two other lives that you know and love.

Quiz

There parents went to the ONGO (national organization I believe)

Poverty is a gift from god.

(I dont remember) fofo kpee wants to be rich so he can change his lifestyle.

Fofo lied about money and his way of living.

 Kotchikpa’s name was changed due to her mother not being able to remeber her daughters name because she has to many children.

The mama and papa are the parents of them. And there relationship to there children are eccentric. they act very wealthy and the mother is always snapping at someone if they are out of order. and they seem to give there children random names. 

The drink is soyo (i think) and also a coke. The food is chicken. (that was a guess) lol

Some of the things that you can expect from the media is exaggerated truth about whats actually going on. The media is just interpreting of what they know and not what they are seeing. But on of the things that we should expect are lies, Death and warnings. We can hold them accountable for making this more of a calamity then it already is. The media is like the fuel and the fight is the fire and the media is only fueling the fire between the two giving information out to the antagonist which are the Hutu's. For an example from which in the movie  when the Hutu's were on there way from escaping the radio and there transmission were letting the Hutu's know that that tuts were escaping and they caught them in the act in back of a truck. The media condones only more violence and information to transcend to others letting them be aware to whats going on.
  The public responsibility is to find out for themselves and not let the media influence them into believing everything. once people start believing what they hear or see in the media they become gullible to lies and that will only fume the fight even More. For an example the Genocide no one actually knew what was going on and the Americans were about to be involved knowing little to know exactly what was going on. But when you listen to the media your taking the media words and not the person that is experiencing whats going on.
