invite to hear Khmer Rouge survivors in my other class


Part of the "sideshow," as William Shawcross famously put it, of the Vietnam war, was the bombing of Cambodia by the USA (after the Vietcong had gone into Cambodia), which helped trigger one of the most horrific genocides of the 20th century. Hongly Khuy is a wonderful man, worth meeting simply for himself.

Hongly Khuy, a Khmer Rouge survivor, and Ysa Osman, an archivist of the genocide of Cham Muslims in Cambodia, will be speaking to my English 100 class about their experiences and their work on Tuesday, March 14 at 1:30 in Holmes Hall 247. Anyone in the department is welcome to come listen.

aloha, Susan
