An August 13, 2008 amendment to the Rwandan constitution specifically added the words "against the Tutsi" after the word "genocide" in Article 51; it might be said this put an official stamp on a narrative of the genocide that framed it solely in terms of Tutsi victimhood.


tbf, Tutsi were killed due to their ethnicity, while Hutu were killed for their "moderate" views


I understand that. But it would seem like an unnecessary amendment to make. The Batwa people of Rwanda lost roughly a third of their entire population during the genocide, and there's little or no official recognition of it; refining the wording of the constitution in this way to put sole emphasis on Tutsi suffering is unhelpful.
