Media for social change

Ry Duong is the coordinator of the Cambodian Working Group. As part of the Life Stories Montreal project, the Cambodian Working Group is composed of people from the Angkorian community, people from the Khmer Buddhist temple as well as student affiliates. Their 5-year objective is to collect approximately 120 life stories of Cambodians living in Montreal. Other plans include establishing a radio station and a documentation centre for the Cambodian community, and publishing articles about the Cambodian genocide, which took place between 1975 and 1979, under the Khmer Rouge. Ry Duong begins by speaking of the difficulty of speaking about this genocide.
