Описание
Highlights the potential for Holocaust-like occurances within Africa by explaining similarities between recent and current regimes in Africa and Nazi Germany. The article raises the point that hate toward homosexuals can also be likened to the early stages of the utopian ideology of the Nazis. The author further highlights the grey area surrounding who is responsible to protect targetted groups, how later perpretrators of genocides have taken inspiration from the Holocaust, and how the best way to prevent genocice is when solutions come from within a country or society, rather than stemming from expernal influence.
