In something of a parallel, the International Herald Tribune reported on 15 February 1994 that the United States Government was refraining from using the term "genocide" in referring to the events in Bosnia ''because an ex­ plicit, unequivocal determination that genocide is under way ... would pro­ duce more political pressure to take effective action, including the use of force, to end and punish the genocide".

Their friend and fellow journalist, Perry Deane Young, tells their story here in a remarkable memoir first published in 1975. This new Press 53 Classics edition features photos by Flynn, Stone, their friends Tim Page, Nik Wheeler, and others, including a new chapter with updates on the lives of those involved and the ongoing search for two of the missing. This book was written in the mid-1970s and mainly concerns the lives of photojournalists Sean Flynn and Dana Stone. They were captured in Cambodia in April 1970 while taking what was clearly a foolish risk of approaching a Viet Cong roadblock. They are assumed to have died in captivity.I first read an account of Sean, Dana, and Tim Page (who also figures in the narrative) in Michael Herrs Dispatches and searched for this book for many years.

  • War, Women, Vietnam: the Mobilization of Female Images, 1954-1978
    War, Women, Vietnam: The Mobilization of Female Images, 1954-1978 Julie Annette Riggs Osborn A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: William J. Rorabaugh, Chair Susan Glenn Christoph Giebel Program Authorized to Offer Degree: History ©Copyright 2013 Julie Annette Riggs Osborn University of Washington Abstract War, Women, Vietnam: The Mobilization of Female Images, 1954-1978 Julie Annette Riggs Osborn Chair of the Supervisory Committee: William J. Rorabaugh, History This dissertation proceeds with two profoundly interwoven goals in mind: mapping the experience of women in the Vietnam War and evaluating the ways that ideas about women and gender influenced the course of American involvement in Vietnam. I argue that between 1954 and 1978, ideas about women and femininity did crucial work in impelling, sustaining, and later restraining the American mission in Vietnam. This project evaluates literal images such as photographs, film and television footage as well as images evoked by texts in the form of news reports, magazine articles, and fiction, focusing specifically on images that reveal deeply gendered ways of seeing and representing the conflict for Americans. Some of the images I consider include a French nurse known as the Angel of Dien Bien Phu, refugees fleeing for southern Vietnam in 1954, the first lady of the Republic of Vietnam Madame Nhu, and female members of the National Liberation Front. Juxtaposing images of American women, I also focus on the figure of the housewife protesting American atrocities in Vietnam and the use of napalm, and images wrought by American women intellectuals that shifted focus away from the military and toward the larger social and psychological impact of the war.

  • TPG Exhibition List
    Exhibition History 1971 - present The following list is a record of exhibitions held at The Photographers' Gallery, London since its opening in January 1971. Exhibitions and a selection of other activities and events organised by the Print Sales, the Education Department and the Digital Programme (including the Media Wall) are listed. Please note: The archive collection is continually being catalogued and new material is discovered. This list will be updated intermittently to reflect this. It is for this reason that some exhibitions have more detail than others. Exhibitions listed as archival may contain uncredited worKs and artists. With this in mind, please be aware of the following when using the list for research purposes: – Foyer exhibitions were usually mounted last minute, and therefore there are no complete records of these brief exhibitions, where records exist they have been included in this list – The Bookstall Gallery was a small space in the bookshop, it went on to become the Print Room, and is also listed as Print Room Sales – VideoSpin was a brief series of worKs by video artists exhibited in the bookshop beginning in December 1999 – Gaps in exhibitions coincide with building and development worKs – Where beginning and end dates are the same, the exact dates have yet to be confirmed as the information is not currently available For complete accuracy, information should be verified against primary source documents in the Archive at the Photographers' Gallery.

"LOSE IN VIETNAM, BRING THE BOYS HOME" ROBERTN. STRASSFELD. This Article examines the contest over dissent and loyalty during the Vietnam War. The Johnson and Nixon Administrations used an array of weapons to discourage or silence antiwar opposition. These included crinLinal prosecutions for "disloyal speech," a tool that they used with less frequency than s01ne other administrations in times of war; prosecutions for other "crimes" that served as pretext for prosecuting disloyal speech; infiltration and harassment; and an attempt to characterize their critics as disloyal. The antiwar movement, in turn, responded to allegations that dissent equaled disloyalty by offering an alternative vision of loyalty and patriotism. In so doing, they recast notions of allegiance, betrayal, support of the troops, and our obligations in the face of conflicting loyalties.

  • Cambodia Inventory 1974
    John Gunther Dean’s introductory comments to the 30 files on Cambodia and complete inventory of the individual folders [85 pages] donated to the National Archives of the USA [The Jimmy Carter Library in Atlanta, Georgia]. [1974 – 1975]. 1 John Gunther Dean’s introductory comments to the 30 files on Cambodia and complete inventory of the individual folders [85 pages] donated to the National Archives of the USA [The Jimmy Carter Library in Atlanta, Georgia]. [1974-1975]. John Gunther Dean’s introductory comments to the files on Cambodia donated by him to the National Archives of the USA [The Jimmy Carter Library], followed by a listing of the individual folders and their content. The ample documentation in this “Cambodia File” on the last year of the American presence in the Khmer Republic is probably unique. Why? Because 1. Some messages from Phnom Penh during the year were destroyed before the withdrawal of the American Embassy from Cambodia 2. Messages from Phnom Penh addressed to different departments and agencies in Washington were either retired to different sites in the US, or destroyed by the individual receivers. In this donation, reports from different departments and agencies are included. 3. American reporting on Cambodia did not end on April 12, 1975 with the evacuation of Phnom Penh. The US team from Phnom Penh worked together for two weeks at the American Embassy in Bangkok. This permitted among other subjects the team to report on the last day in Phnom Penh [April 12, 1975]. For example the text of the heart-breaking letter from Prince Sirik Matak to Ambassador Dean, dated April 12, in which he accuses the United States of abandoning Cambodia and condemning him to certain death from the hands of the Khmer opposition, was sent to Washington after the US evacuation from Bangkok [see File 9].

    SOUNDING OFF: FOLKSONG, POETRY, AND OTHER COGNITIVE DISSONANCE FROM THE AMERICAN WAR IN VIETNAM A Dissertation by MATTHEW KIRK IRWIN Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Terry H.

To bridge gaps between traditional and cultural primary sources, this study examines folk culture that the historiography has neglected: graffiti, folksongs, and poetry. Most were conceived and produced in-country, near in time to specific wartime experiences and their consequent emotions, thus lending them an emotional relevance and chronological proximity to Vietnam War history few other primary sources can boast. Graffiti, songs, and poems derived from specific historical contexts, registering social commentary and chronicling the cognitive dissonance that arose among combatants when their coveted, long-held, patriotic mythologies collided with wartime realities. These sources document the Vietnam War’s “inner-history”—the emotions, beliefs, concerns, and emotions of particular individuals, many of whom find voice virtually nowhere else in the historiographical canon. What folk culture lacks in terms of scope and scale vis-à-vis traditional sources, it abounds with in physical description, emotional narration, honesty, and transparency. Its value to historical inquiry lies in its tendency to pull no punches—ever.
