Let’s rewind to 50 years ago when we didn’t know about the history of the American Secret War, and the plight of refugees that fled the small land-linked country bordering Vietnam and Cambodia.

What should we remember from this history?

How should we remember the lives lost and the stories that remain?

And why is this issue so important to research, document, and record?

There's still an abundance of documents, books, articles, photos and videos as well as recent footage that we were able to capture not too long ago that has us all thinking… 

Let’s not forget about Laos.

Take a deep dive with us as we listen to a CBS Broadcast from 1970 about the U.S. involvement in the Secret War in Laos as well as revisit Fred Branfman's Voices from the Plain of Jars, a collection of drawings and first-hand accounts of what refugees experienced during the American bombing campaign that lasted 9 years. We also get to listen to an interview featuring Fred Branfman conducted by Yosh Yamanaka, Producer of documentary film Waiting to Explode.
