Which group represented about half of the population of florida in the 1830s?

This was a problem for Floridians because they often feared that slaves could rebel and they also feared that liberating them would ruin them politically and socially.

Answer:

Please Mark Brainliest. Hope this helps!

Explanation:

George was the second vice-president of the Rwandan Hutu militia Interahamwe. Rutaganda was partly responsible for the Rwandan genocide of 1994. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for genocide, crimes against humanity and murder.

Paul Rusesabagina, manager of the Hôtel des Mille Collines, is Hutu, but his wife Tatiana, is Tutsi. Their marriage is a source of friction with Hutu extremists, including Georges Rutaganda, a goods supplier to the hotel who is also the local leader of Interahamwe, a brutal Hutu militia.
