Publisher’s Note: This essay is intended to empower you with information, to ground you in history and to offer hope for the future. When we understand how harm spreads, we’re better able to stop it and choose a different path. An action guide is at the bottom of this essay. Please spend time with it and pass it on. Visibility is what keeps this work in motion. In the ruins of war, even false promises can feel like salvation. Cambodians know this well.
