Conservatives set to thwart third parties
Art pieces for sale
by Jeremy Faulkner Daily Lobo
The UNM student group Conservative Republicans hosted a forum Thursday for only the most bona fide, through and through Republican primary candidates. Unlike the College Republicans, who generally support any Republican candidates, the Conservative Republicans only support candidates whom they deem unequivocally conservative, said Donald Gluck, president of UNM Conservative Republicans. “We advocate for conservative principles as stated in the Declaration of Independence, as codified in the Constitution and as practiced by Ronald Reagan,” Gluck said in an e-mail. “Our political vehicle is not fringe or third parties, but a Republican Party that adheres to these principles.” The group avoids Republicans
whom they identify as harboring an inkling of liberal or moderate views, Gluck said. The candidates invited to the forum were William Kurth and Daniel Houston, both candidates for Bernalillo County Sheriff ; Errol Chavez, candidate for New Mexico State Auditor; and District 5 Bernalillo County Commission candidate Wayne Johnson. The Conservative Republicans’ first purpose, as defined by the group’s bylaws, is to make the Republican Party a “conservative bastion, and thus the home for a majority of Americans.” Supporting conservative candidates for public office streamlines the party and achieves the group’s second purpose to “prevent the splintering of the conservative movement by thwarting third and fringe parties.”

Student group expands health fair by Tricia Remark Daily Lobo
The American Medical Student Association saved the Student Health and Counseling center’s annual health fair last year by sponsoring it themselves. This year, the student group plans to continue spearheading the event to make the fair bigger and better, said Anna Vestling, co-director of UNM AMSA. “The SHC had experienced budget cuts for outreach and student education service,” Vestling said. “We realized that our organization had the power and the funding to be able to put this on to support the student body.” The UNM Student Health Fair is today and Thursday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Cornell Mall. Amy Frederick, SHAC nurse manager, said the SHAC will have

representatives at booths on Thursday giving free blood pressure and blood sugar tests, as well as coupons for cholesterol tests. On both days there will be health information on cholesterol, body fat, smoking cessation, insurance and women’s and men’s health, she said. AMSA will provide booths on topics including health insurance, STIs and HIV — even holistic medicine, Vestling said. “We’re going to provide more information about health care that isn’t medicine-based,” she said. “It’s more in terms of stress reduction and different aspects of health care like chiropractors or herbalists. It’s just a broader perspective.” She said multicultural health, substance abuse cessation and preventative health information will also be available at AMSA’s booths. Members will hand out fruit and healthy snacks.
The Health Fair will cost about $1,000 to host, Vestling said, with about $600 going to renting tables and chairs from the UNM Physical Plant. Beverly Kloeppel, Student Health and Counseling center director, said the fair must continue so AMSA and SHAC can continue student outreach. “I do think we identify some people, for example with depression screening outreach, that do come in who may not have otherwise,” Kloeppel said. The Health Fair will benefit community members as well as UNM students, Vestling said. UNM AMSA will donate all proceeds from a silent auction to Native Health Initiative and Casa de Salud — two nonprofit organizations in the Albuquerque area. Some items up for auction include a Kaplan MCAT preparation
Though politics can make some red-hot with frustration, the Democratic Party of New Mexico wants to show UNM students why it can be cool to go blue. The DPNM will host Campaign Blue today from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m in Smith Plaza. The event aims to show students how they can get politically involved ahead of the June 1 primary elections. Angie Poss, co-organizer of the event, said students don’t often participate in politics, so she wanted to have an event that could show students how to get involved, either by voting or signing up to volunteer. “Students can often become the most passive group to the political system,” she said. “If they don’t pay attention, they won’t know how politics is affecting them.” Gabe Apodaca, student and field coordinator for the Committee to

Elect Diane Denish for Governor, said he wants students to get involved because there is no student representation in policy making. “There are too many policies that are being implemented without any student input, which is sad to say,” he said. Apodaca said school taught him the importance of being involved in his community, and he would like to help others become more active. “Studying at UNM kind of opens your eyes to the issues and teaches you to understand the issues,” he said. “The only way to really make a change is to take part in what is happening politically and socially.” The Campaign Blue event is designed to get the word out about internships, jobs and volunteer opportunities this summer, Apodaca said.

The Lobos showed no mercy to the Red Raiders in Tuesday’s matinee duel. The UNM baseball team played Texas Tech at Isotopes Park, sealing the deal with one big inning. UNM 16 Tech’s sunny day was ruined 8 TTU by a six-hit, ninerun fifth inning by UNM and resulted in a 16-8 Lobo victory. The Lobos added four runs in the bottom of the seventh, and Rafael Neda hit a stand-up double to score two runs and UNM added two more with a Red Raider error on pitcher Justin Cooper to extend a 12-3 lead in the eighth inning. “I like to have a team that you never know who is going to be your poison that day, and that has happened every day this year,” said UNM head coach Ray Birmingham. “Everybody here on this team has hit and they work at it. But I demand that they do it the right way.” In the fifth inning, the first four batters for UNM Justin Howard, Ryan Honeycutt, Neda and Cameron Smith produced a bases-loaded situation. Honeycutt hit a liner to centerfielder Taylor Ashby for the first out of the inning.

The next batter, John Michael Twichell was walked by Red Raider relief pitcher Ben Flora and scored Howard. Texas Tech wouldn’t put another UNM batter out for another 30 minutes. But, in the next at bat, Max Willett hit a line-drive single to center field and scored Neda and Smith. The Lobos would add six more runs before the second out of the inning.

Willett said it was just one of those days for the UNM offense. “We hit phenomenally, and I wish that I could have got a couple more hits,” Willett said. “But I guess that is the way it goes sometimes, when you’re hitting the ball right at (the defense). Obviously we hit the ball well, and sometimes you just need one of those big innings to bust the game wide open, and that is what we did today, and hopefully we can just keep

‘The Blind Clown’ sees the real world not fantasy Editor, I would like to share my story, “The Blind Clown.” There was once a blind clown who made his way at the carnival pretending to be a mystic. He would tell people what he thought the world looked like, painting them a beautiful picture, flattering and delighting them. Of course nobody ever disagreed with what he said, everybody loved him, and he became wealthy and famous, for a carnival clown. In spite of his good fortune, however, he wanted so badly to see the beautiful dancing girl at the carnival. An old wizard sold him some magic tea, and he got his sight restored. He looked around at the world, and laughing, hanged himself. James Nathan Post Daily Lobo reader
Event shows Peace Studies nonpartisan on Israeli issues Editor, I went to hear the talk by Gil Hoffman, political analyst for the Jerusalem Post, when he spoke at UNM last week. I was surprised when I found out the talk was co-sponsored by the Peace Studies Program, along with the AntiDefamation League and the Jewish Federation. It was a great talk and Q&A session. The Peace Studies Program is normally a political and partisan program and antiIsrael from what I’ve seen, and so I haven’t taken their program very seriously. How can a department teach peace and bigotry simultaneously? When Peace Studies co-sponsored the Ziad Abbas talk the week before, this reinforced that impression, and I didn’t expect to see a UNM department, especially the Peace Studies Program, give a fair hearing to the Israeli side of the Arab/Israeli dispute. However, by bringing Gil Hoffman to speak and providing an open forum for an Israeli representative to give Israel’s side of the story, Peace Studies showed that it can educate and not just indoctrinate. They gave us a rare example of academic freedom and intellectual honesty. I hope to see this is a continuing trend and not just a fluke.

Daily Lobo guest columnist Dear Dr. Peg When I get a headache or get sick with body aches or fever, I like to take something to help me feel better. But I heard that acetaminophen can destroy your liver and ibuprofen can destroy your stomach. Is there anything else? What can I do? -Achey Dear Achey, It gets confusing, I know. Pharmacy shelves are loaded with products claiming to cure whatever ails you. Many of the products have multiple ingredients, which can add to the confusion. Both of the drugs you mentioned have been in the limelight and were revealed to be not quite as benign as they seemed. Acetaminophen goes by the brand name Tylenol, among others. You might also see it on labels as APAP, which stands for N-acetyl-p-amino phenol, the official chemical name. This drug made the news because it caused liver damage in some people. In normal doses, acetaminophen is usually safe. The problem is that people take more than they realize. Acetaminophen is an
ingredient in lots of products, like Dayquil, Nyquil, Theraflu and Excedrin PM, just to name a few. Add this to the fact that, for acetaminophen, the distance between maximum safe dose and toxic dose is quite short. So if you take one of the multi-symptom products and also take acetaminophen, you can end up with a toxic dose of acetaminophen without realizing it. Since alcohol can damage the liver too, there is some concern about taking acetaminophen if you drink alcohol. If you have a weakened liver, like from chronic hepatitis or heavy alcohol use, you should talk to your doctor before you take acetaminophen. The FDA has taken a few steps to decrease the risk of people getting liver damage from acetaminophen. As of this month, product labels are required to highlight the presence and danger of this drug. There is talk of taking it further, like limiting the maximum single dose to less than the current 1,000 mg (two extra strength pills), and decreasing the maximum recommended daily dose, which is currently 4 grams in total, but those steps haven’t happened yet. My best advice to you is to read labels carefully. You might also want to buy single ingredient medications. I know it is easier to take one product than three, but it might be safer to address one symptom at a time. It can also be cheaper. Multi-symptom products can be quite pricey compared to single ingredient generic drugs. If you doubt that, do your own recon in the nearest pharmacy. You also asked about ibuprofen. Like all drugs, it can be a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Ibuprofen is in a different class of drug from acetaminophen, a class called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines, or NSAIDs. Aspirin and naproxen are also in this group. Naproxen is the active ingredient in Aleve. There are many more NSAIDs available by prescription only. NSAIDsworkforfeverandpain,likeacetaminophen. Unlike acetaminophen, however, these
drugs also work on inflammation. These are the drugs you’ll take if you sprain your ankle or hurt your back. NSAIDs can cause you to bleed more easily and they can also irritate your stomach. I have seen patients with bleeding ulcers from taking too many NSAIDs. Again, it is usually a matter of dosage, but even at normal doses some people have trouble. Take these medicines with food, don’t exceed the maximum dosages and pay attention to your body for signals that the medicine might not agree with you. A word about aspirin before I leave you. Aspirin, also known as ASA or acetylsalicylic acid, is an old drug, tried and true for many problems. However, it has a rare but dangerous side effect. In a few children and teens who are recovering from viral illnesses, aspirin has caused something called Reye’s Syndrome. This is a rare but potentially fatal complication causing internal chemical derangements and swelling in the liver and brain. For this reason, most doctors don’t recommend aspirin for kids or teens. If you think you might have taken too much of anything, call Poison Control locally at (505) 272-2222 or nationally at (800) 222-1222. In addition, your local pharmacist can be a source of excellent information. Student Health and Counseling Pharmacy may be reached at (505) 277-6307. They are located on the second floor of SHAC.

Man pleads guilty to killing parents by Eric Tucker
Associated Press PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A Rhode Island man admitted Tuesday that he fatally beat his parents, hid their bodies in the backyard cesspool and then used the couple’s credit cards for a shopping spree. James Soares Jr., 25, pleaded guilty to first-degree murder and other crimes just as he was to stand trial in Providence Superior Court. He faces two consecutive sentences of life in prison.

Soares admitted attacking his parents, James and Marian Soares, with a heavy garden hoe and concealing the bodies in the in-ground cesspool outside their Warren home. State police dug up the bodies on July 26, 2008, and formally charged Soares the following day. The couple had been reported missing two weeks earlier after missing a family reunion. Marian Soares had so anticipated the get-together that she had created a special family tree and had copies run off for relatives. But in the days leading
up to the event, she did not return phone calls and e-mails from her family. “Marian and James Soares had no intention of missing this family reunion,” prosecutor Stacey Veroni said in court Tuesday. The medical examiner’s office believes the Soares were killed on July 7, five days before the family reunion. Soares lied repeatedly about the couple’s whereabouts when questioned by relatives and investigators, Veroni said.
“Rudy pitched his tail off and I thought that he did a great job,” Birmingham said. UNM improves to 28-14 on the season, while the TTU drops to 2421.

Poss said becoming involved in politics has opened doors for her that she was unaware of before becoming an intern with the DPNM. “I have learned a lot about being involved in local politics,” she said. “There are ways people can participate that I didn’t even know existed until I got involved with the party.” The Campaign Blue event will have representatives from more than 13 campaigns and will be giving away ALB_DailyLobo_6x8_RN_2010_04_26.pdf free cotton candy and snow cones.

Rudy Jaramillo, who started the game for UNM, pitched five innings and gave up only three earned runs on five Texas Tech hits. Jaramillo is now 3-1 on the season.

PHOENIX — Politicians weighed in on Arizona’s tough new immigration law Tuesday, while Mexico cautioned its citizens about an “adverse political atmosphere” in the state and a Phoenix man said he was aiming to get a referendum to repeal the measure on November’s ballot. In California, Meg Whitman, the Republican front-runner in the California gubernatorial primary, said that Arizona is taking the wrong approach with its tough new law. “I think there’s just better ways to

and respect the framework of local laws” and said that the law’s passage shows “an adverse political atmosphere for migrant communities and for all Mexican visitors.” Meanwhile, Jon Garrido, who produces a Hispanic website and ran unsuccessfully last year for Phoenix City Council, said he’s been flooded with inquiries and that he’s optimistic about putting a referendum to repeal the law on Arizona’s November ballot.

Fly-fishing getaway: Best deal out there Try writing, shooting Daily Lobo
If you’ve ever wondered what the mystery of fly-fishing is, you can find out this weekend. The fly-fishing trip has been part of the Getaway Adventures program at UNM Recreation Services for 16 years. Laura Montoya, Getaway Adventure coordinator, has overseen the growth of the program. “Getaway Adventures is a nonprofit program. We provide trips that give the outdoors and even the cultural aspects of New Mexico,” Montoya said. “Our trips are unique. We try to focus on outdoor trips. We will do anything that is outdoors.” The fly-fishing trip will be at the San Juan River on Saturday and Sunday, accompanied by a clinic to prepare students for the trip. The clinic is today. “We have a fly-fishing trip every semester,” Montoya said. “The clinic is to teach the logistics of fly-fishing. They’ll learn about tying knots and more to prepare for the trip this weekend.” The session is limited to eight people because of the shortage in equipment, she said. However, if anyone has their own fly-fishing equipment, they are welcome to
attend. Registration is available online at the Recreation Services website. “We try to keep the group small that way they all get special attention from the instructor,” Montoya said. “The session is open to all students, faculty, staff and even their friends.” She said the Getaway Adventure will be taught by a UNM alumnus Thomas Pena. “Pena is the ‘master of the rivers.’ He came to me about 17 years ago as a student and suggested that we start fly-fishing. At the time, we didn’t have any equipment for it. Pena explained that he had all the equipment because of his job and we started from there,” Montoya said. Pena said he is trying to teach the basics of fly-fishing. “Fly-fishing is a technique,” Pena said. “I teach people how to recognize the waters and cast the reels. There is a certain mystery that surrounds fly-fishing. The reality is, there is no mystery. It is just the technique.” Pena has been fishing since he was 10 years old. The first time he tried fly-fishing was on the San Juan River. “The sport is very straightforward and logical,” he said. “These workshops are a great opportunity for people who don’t want to put out the
Fly-Fishing Getaway Saturday and Sunday San Juan River Training clinic: Today To register visit Recsvcs.unm.edu expense and try to figure it out on their own. I do this to get people on the same level as far as knowledge, and then show them how to do it.” There is always a cost for each Getaway Adventure, but it’s relatively low for the experience, Montoya said. The cost of fly-fishing this weekend is $77 if you have your own equipment or $88 if you are renting equipment from Recreation Services. “It is the best deal that you will be able to find,” she said. “We offer these getaways because the person won’t have to go out and buy the equipment in order to try something new. If a person tries a new thing out and finds they liked it, then we have offered a service at the minimum fee.” The trip is overnight and fishers can camp out if they want. There will be another fly-fishing event on July 17 and 18 at Rio Costilla Park in northern New Mexico.
film in Honors course by Hunter Riley Daily Lobo
If you think you’re cut out for the film industry, try taking University Honors Art of Film class first. The class is designed for people who are interested in film but don’t necessarily want to make a career out of it, although some do go on to pursue the film industry. The final project for the class is writing and shooting a short film. All of the films can be found on the Daily Lobo Film Fest YouTube channel, and students are encouraged to view them and vote for their favorite, said visiting lecturer and teacher of the class, Jonatha Kottler. “This is the fourth year that we’ve done the class in Honors,” Kottler said. “And this is the first year that we’ve done the online component. I think it’s going to open our students up to a much larger audience … The online idea was something that Pat Lohmann suggested. Given his position at the Lobo and taking the class, he suggested that we go this way.” Kottler said each year the class hosts a film festival to present the students’ films to the public. The films
University Honors Art of Film May 3 1 – 4 p.m. Bottom floor of the Student Health Center are given awards from the audience and judges. There is also a suggested donation of $2, and all the proceeds go to a local charity, which for this year will be the Desert Globe Players: Children’s Shakespeare Theater. Kottler said the online component should help draw students into the class and give them a better idea of what the Honors Program is. Junior Carissa Simmons made a short film with her classmate Bethany Abrahamson based on a Nathaniel Hawthorne’s short story, “Rappaccini’s Daughter.” “It’s basically about this guy who meets a girl and realizes that she is poisonous,” Simmons said. “It’s set in Victorian times.

Louis Herring is a senior in the College of Fine Arts. He loves horror movies, chemical supplies and doodling on other peoples discarded prints. Adorned in a paintcovered apron, Herring works with print scraps, Sharpies and small cutouts of a blood-splattered Christian Bale. Daily Lobo: Hey, what are you doing today? Louis Herring: I’m making some art, but don’t you think someone else is doing something more important? DL: You’re a part of the community, of course you’re important. LH: Well, OK. DL: So what are your paintings about? LH: I try to combine different pieces of culture into one, like this piece has a quote from Dante’s Inferno, but it also has characters from American horror films. DL: That’s cool. How long have you been in school? You’re a studio major, right? LH: Yeah, I am a studio major, but I am also a staff member. And as far as the time frame for school, it has got to be close to six years. UNM allows staff eight credit hours a semester. But thankfully, I am finally done. I am graduating. DL: Where do you work? LH: In the chemical research lab supply department. DL: So if I wanted to start a meth
New Mexico Daily Lobo
lab, you’d be the guy to go to? LH: No, and yes, we do get that joke a lot. DL: When you start a piece do you just start, or do you have an idea of where you’re going? LH: Well, when I first started, you know, I would just start. But at this point I don’t touch anything really until I have a full idea of where I am going to go with it. I do these, the horror paintings and stuff. But people seem to like this art book I am making most. DL: What is the book? LH: Well, I have a box in the print-making lab with a note on it, asking for any and all donations. Then I take the prints and use Sharpie to make my mark on it ‌ See, this one was a landscape, but I realized this doesn’t want to be a landscape — this wants to be the devil eating ice cream ‌ This one I named “Mickey Mouse on Crack.â€? DL: So what do you call this book? LH: “The Blur of Insanity!â€? DL: You’re graduating soon, yeah? So what are you going to do when you’re done? Are you just going to focus on art or stay at your job, or what? LH: I know I am not going to stop working on my art. I’ll stay here at UNM working, but I am going to make time to do art whenever I can. DL: Cool, well thanks for taking the time. LH: Yeah man, just don’t crucify me too bad.

Class sculpts students into race-ready athletes by Jenny Gignac Daily Lobo
Running, swimming and cycling … oh crap! If you were looking for something to whip you into shape besides the traditional physical education classes UNM offers, then this class may be for you. Trevor Gillum, the class instructor of UNM’s triathlon class, has been whipping 35 lucky, or unlucky based on your preference, students into triathlon shape over this semester, but they do not seem to mind. Student Alyssa Martinez said the class is a great supplement to her own training as well as a good social outlet. “It is nice when I am forced to run intervals and swim at a harder pace than I normally would because it is something I need to do in order to do well in my races,” she said. “The class atmosphere adds to the motivation of wanting to work hard and push yourself.” A triathlon is an event that incorporates three sports into one successive event. Athletes swim, cycle and run various distances consecutively and compete for the fastest overall time. Triathlons are a test in power, strength and endurance and showcase athletes with all-around physical prowess. This semester is the first time that Gillum taught the class. He said
he has participated in a handful of multi-sport events, but comes from a running background primarily. Martinez said he is the right instructor for the course. “Trevor is a great instructor because he really knows what he is talking about when it comes to endurance training,” she said. “He used to run for University of Montana, so he really is knowledgeable about information when it comes to running, such as how to set up a program, sports, nutrition and proper training to prevent injuries. He makes the class enjoyable for people who are training for races, or those who are just taking the class to stay active.” Gillum said that the levels of athleticism in the class vary, like any fitness class. If Jennifer Lopez can do it, so can you, Gillum said and he hopes to see more students get involved in the program. “Hopefully students get interested in racing tri’s and get fit along the way,” Gillum said. If the class seems like a good fit, check out the fall semester triathlon class on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 11 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. According to LoboWeb on Tuesday, there were eight slots in the class left.

Melania Trump designs accessible jewelry line by Alicia Rancilio Associated Press
NEW YORK — Even the rich and famous enjoy a bargain. Melania Trump is launching a line of affordable jewelry on QVC. Each item in the Melania Timepieces & Jewelry collection costs less than $200. The 40-year-old model could have created a fine jewelry line but said in a telephone interview from Palm Beach, Fla., that she wanted something more accessible. And now that her 4-year-old son, Barron, is in school, she has more time to work on sketches and designs. “I’m completely involved from A to Z, 100 percent,” she said. “I go
Honors
through the samples and have to approve every piece.” The line is broken up into three categories inspired by places Trump calls home: New York, Palm Beach and Paris. The New York items are created with a businesswoman in mind, Palm Beach is more sporty and Paris is more flashy and glamorous. Trump said she didn’t consult her real estate mogul husband, Donald, much about her venture. “He knows I’m doing it, but we didn’t talk much,” she said. “I’m not a big talker; I prefer to do it and then when it’s done to come out and show. I don’t like people who talk, talk, talk and then don’t deliver.” Trump’s collection will make its debut on QVC on Friday.

a computer at one point and there is a tricky underwater scene, but it was fun and exciting.” Simmons said the class taught her a lot about film that she wasn’t aware of, such as different types of symbolism. They also learned how to write screenplays in the class. “There are a lot of really interesting readings about visual symbolism,” she said. “Like a bad guy always enters from the right side of the screen, because as Americans we read left to right, so if it comes from the opposite direction it makes us feel uncomfortable.”
Will Schlesinger is also in the class and said he made a film that combined a western feel with the open spaces of the UNM campus. “It was more of a location thing,” he said. “I just thought that this would be a good scene for a chase scene.” Schlesinger said he wasn’t expecting the class to be so much work, but he learned more that his film interests lie in the amateur realm. “It’s a lot of work that goes into the full length films, even the crappy ones” he said. “It makes you realize and appreciate how much effort goes into making really bad films.”

— himself: Rwandan President Paul Kagame. The president’s star turn Monday night before a chic crowd in lower Manhattan was less surprising considering it was the world premiere of a documentary that portrays Kagame, who is up for re-election in August, in a heroic light. After the 88-minute film, “Earth Made of Glass,” ended, filmgoers welcomed him with a standing ovation. “When you want reconciliation and justice at the same time, they tend to conflict,” he replied to one question. “That’s what happens every day in our country.” Kagame also pledged to continue cooperating with his nation’s former sworn enemy, Congo. The two nations teamed up for a joint operation last year against the extremist Rwandan Hutu rebels who fled to eastern Congo, after Kagame’s rebel army ended the 1994 genocide. Rwanda has, together with neighbor Uganda, twice invaded Congo — in 1994 and 1998. During each invasion Rwanda said it was chasing down the Rwandan militias. The second invasion sparked a five-year, six-nation war in Congo that killed some 3 million people. Recently, Congo President Joseph Kabila told the United Nations he wants the world body to start withdrawing all peacekeeping troops, ahead of Kabila’s re-election bid next year. Back-to-back wars shook Congo from 1996 to 2002, drawing in half a dozen African nations. Kabila’s government, however, has since struggled to assert its control in the east and has had difficulty building effective institutions and integrating former fighters into a national army. “I wish the Congolese the best for their country,” Kagame said.
“We are trying to work with the Congolese. ... We are going to continue working together in our region to have peace, not only for Rwanda but for Congo as well, and for the rest of the region.” Kagame’s Tutsi rebels defeated the Hutu extremists after the 1994 genocide in which half a million people, mostly Tutsis and moderate Hutus, died. Critics of his government argue, however, that the ruling party has used the concept of genocide ideology to discredit detractors and defeat political opponents. For years, Kagame has sparred with France over an alleged French role in the genocide, with Rwanda’s government and genocide survivor organizations often accusing France of training and arming the Hutu militias and former government troops who led the genocide. In 1998, a French parliamentary panel absolved France of responsibility in the slaughter. But in February, Nicolas Sarkozy became the first French president to visit Rwanda since the genocide and said those responsible for the killings should be found and punished, including any who might be residing in France. Filmmaker Deborah Scranton’s documentary prominently adopts the view of Kagame’s 2008 report into what she calls “the French government’s hidden complicity” in the genocide. Also interwoven into the film is the gripping story of how 47-yearold Jean Pierre Sagahutu, a fixer for international news media organizations, tracked down the villagers who years earlier had permitted his father, a physician, to be killed and buried naked in a field beside a road block, simply for being an ethnic Tutsi.
