Africa Union Day

Africa Union Day is when we mimic an Africa Union debate. We each have a country in Africa,we have been researching about for an essay,that we acted like we were representatives of that country. There was two or three people in each country. We made resolutions to the problem in Burundi. The conflict between the Hutu and Tutsi in Burundi started in the 1960’s. The country I have is Rwanda. Rwanda is one of the neighboring countries of Burundi. Rwanda is very similar to Burundi in many ways. They both have had very much conflict in the past years. They are both also moderately poor, and have many refugees.  I think it was very cool that we got to mimic the African Union because we learned a lot about how they solve problems in Africa. My favorite part about African Union Day was that we got to work with other countries and make resolutions for the problem. I wish that we would have had more time to work with the other people in our groups, and share our thoughts about the problem.
