The Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center of Nassau County (HMTC) marked the National Day of Remembrance for the Cambodian Genocide with a virtual presentation by Yale University professors Eve Zucker and Ben Kiernan, based on their new book, Political Violence in Southeast Asia since 1945: Case Studies from Six Countries. Their talk examined waves of political violence that affected six Southeast Asian countries - Indonesia, Burma/Myanmar, Cambodia, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam. They broadened outward to raise questions about the collective memory of mass violence worldwide.
