In this powerful episode of Death in Cambodia, Life in America, we sit down with renowned anthropologist Dr. Alexander Hinton, an expert on genocide, mass violence, and human rights, to dig into the dark history of the Cambodian genocide and the lessons it holds for the world. Dr. Hinton shares how his journey began with a visit to Cambodia in 1992, where he was profoundly moved by the stories of Khmer Rouge survivors.

Together, we explore the foundations of genocide—how ideology, intent, and a history of political violence create the conditions for such atrocities to occur. Dr. Hinton sheds light on the Khmer Rouge regime’s use of manipulation and control, including how they twisted cultural and religious concepts to justify their actions. We also discuss the politicization of the term "genocide" and why it's crucial to confront these debates head-on to achieve justice and accountability.

Dr. Hinton offers unique insights from his time as an expert witness at the Khmer Rouge tribunal, unpacking the challenges of proving genocide and the vital role tribunals play in bringing truth to light. He emphasizes the importance of education in genocide prevention, exploring how understanding history and addressing trauma can help build resilience and reconciliation in post-genocide societies.

This episode is a profound look at the power of storytelling, justice, and education in the ongoing fight against mass violence. Whether you're new to learning about the Cambodian genocide or a longtime student of history, Dr. Hinton’s reflections will leave you with a deeper understanding of the human cost of violence—and the hope for a more just future.
