new travel journal website, request for stories

[Andy Carvin <acarvin@GSN.ORG>]

Hi everyone... It's my pleasure to announce the premiere of my latest website,
Southeast Asia Diary: Tales of Cambodia, Laos and Thailand. It's an online
journal of my November visit to these countries, along with brief stops in
Burma and Hong Kong. The site features my entire travelogue of the trip,
scores of photos, and even a few RealAudio files I recorded along the way.
You can visit the site at

http://edweb.gsn.org/seasia

I'm also in the process of finishing a companion website called From Sideshow
to Genocide: Stories from the Cambodian Holocaust. It's a history of the
suicidal Khmer Rouge regime of 1975-1979, the political and social events that
led to the genocide, and the stories of survivors and others. The website will
also include study questions and lesson plans for teachers interested in
including the Cambodian genocide as part of high school world history or
holocaust studies curricula. I hope this site will be ready during the summer.

A major aspect of the Sideshow website will be to include stories of people
who lived through the events of 1970s Cambodia. I've already collected several
moving personal accounts of Khmers who escaped the slaughter, but I'm also
interested in including other perspectives: Americans who took part in US
campaigns in Cambodia, people who protested the action back at home, or anyone
who remembers the period and has strong impressions of the events in Cambodia.
If you happen to be one of these people (or know someone) and would like to
contribute a story to the website, please send me an email at acarvin@gsn.org.

thanks, and enjoy the journal,
