Ambassador Sichan Siv: A Survivor's Journey from Cambodia's Killing Fields to U.S. Diplomat March 29, 2010

When Vietnam and Cambodia fell 35 years ago this spring, speaker Sichan Siv endured the Khmer Rouge slave labor camps, escaped, resettled as a refugee, and later became an ambassador to the U.N. His 2008 memoir Golden Bones is "gripping…always compelling." Join us for this profoundly inspirational program as Ambassador Siv tells of his amazing journey from certain death halfway around the world in Cambodia, to the corridors of power in Washington, D.C.
