Voice of Witness

In her article “Stories From Victims of Burma’s Military Regime: A Testament to the Value of Oral History,” Epoch Times writer Annie Wu discusses the work of Voice of Witness and our newest title, Nowhere to Be Home: Narratives of Burma’s Military Regime. Wu describes the importance of the series, writing, “The true value of these personal testimonies lies in the fact that through recording their stories, survivors become agents of history, instead of being silenced forever by their government.” To read the full article, click here.

After an incredible few weeks presenting our work in Philadelphia, New York, and the Bay Area, we’re wrapping up our spring book tour this week. There are only two more chances to hear from and meet the editors of Nowhere to Be Home: Narratives from Survivors of Burma’s Military Regime in San Francisco. We hope to see you there!
