Yep, that vaunted Christian moral superiority
http://allafrica.com/stories/200612010793.html
In an article written in 2005, Tom Ndahiro, a human rights
commissioner in Rwanda, underscores the view that the Catholic
establishment was instrumental in manipulating racial identities and
creating divisions between Hutus and Tutsis. He said schools and
seminaries helped disseminate racial theories, and that from 1959
these were angled towards keeping the Hutus in power. Instead of
speaking out against discrimination and injustice, the church became
complicit with the political regime.
Church missionaries were accused of driving a chasm between Hutus and
Tutsis even in colonial times. Some critics say that towards the end
of the 19th century, the White Fathers religious order promoted Tutsis
on the grounds of their alleged racial superiority to Hutus.
