The SMU Debate Program welcomes the iDebate Rwanda team, composed of Rwandan high school students visiting the U.S. as part of their Voices of a Post-Genocide Generation Tour, commemorating the 25th anniversary in 2019 of the Rwandan genocide. The teams will debate political issues in Africa. Each team will provide opening and closing speeches, with time provided for audience arguments for and against the evening’s resolution. A final ballot will be taken regarding the audience’s opinion at the end of the hour.
The event is one of a series of public debates on controversial issues sponsored by SMU Debate for the campus and Dallas community. Dr. Ben Voth, associate professor and director of debate in Meadows’ Corporate Communication and Public Affairs Division, will moderate. For more information call 214.768.3028.
