Chidren of The Revolution

Anghar slogans:"Clay is molded while it is still soft."

"You have to be, and remain, faithful to the revolution. People age quickly. Being young, you are at the most receptive age, and capable to assimilate what the revolution stands for, better than anyone else." - Pol Pot

CPK always needed musicians

From NPR

Day to Day, July 14, 2005 · "I cannot tell you how or why I survived; I do not know myself."
So begins the book Music Through the Dark, the remarkable story of how Cambodian musician Daran Kravanh survived the under the Khmer Rouge regime.
Kravanh came from a musical family of 11, but at 21, his tranquil life as an accordion player ended as the Khmer Rouge stormed the capital on April 19, 1975. Followers of Pol Pot singled out anyone educated, professional or "capitalist," meaning Westernized.
Kravanh, then a college student wearing a collared shirt and tie, was singled out and marched into the forest with others to be executed. He escaped and tried to reach Thailand, but chose not to risk the minefields along the border. He surrendered to the Khmer Rouge and was put to work in the camps, farming without tools.
Then, a miracle: He discovered an accordion on a tree stump and began to play. The soldier who owned the accordion told him to keep playing, and soon he and other musicians were performing in festivals glorifying the new regime.

How to sell a book

Endorsements by dead people. The far right does this all the time, claiming Martin Luther King would march with the pro-life forces or that he would back a lot of our present wars because he would realize the injustice we are fighting. Some even claim Karl Marx would embrace capitalism if he were around today and saw how well it's turned out.
Of course they are dead and can't speak for themselves. That's the beauty of finding a dead spokesperson. You can put your words in their mouth and they can't stop you.
