This is not a challenge or anything, so i hope it doesn't come off that way, but if you want to make it one feel free.

I was just doing an assignment on the Rwanda Genocide, and started thinkin about Harry Potter just a bit. In case you don't know much about the background about Rwanda, you can find out more about it here:

Looking at it in perspective, its actually rather interesting: the the majority attacking the minority, the Hutu fighting the Tutsi... its just slightly reversed in HP but otherwise pretty similar. A fight for power made mostly out of fear with a few zealots beginning it and being pure sadists and then scaring others to their cause.

Maybe a fic that drew parallels to this could turn out interestingly. Its a total cliche, the wizarding world falling under total devastation, but if it was written seriously, and without overtones of humor...

Just a thought.
