Fasten your seatbelts I needed some input on what to write as the intro to my blog. After a few attempts with the help of a helpful AI (there seemed to be no end to it), I decided to fix it myself. Here’s why: The following is the AI attempt… Welcome to a realm … …
The genocide in Rwanda On 6 April 1994, a plane with Rwandan President Juvénal Habyarimana on board was shot down outside the country’s capital.
