Pete Pin

NPR and EN FOCO Exhibition

Pete Pin, our first Emergency Fund Fellow in 2011,  was featured on the NPR Pictures Show for his project "Cambodian Diaspora." Read the whole interview here.

"One thing that I learned ... is that a lot of people felt really traumatized during their stay in refugee camps," says Pin. He adds that violence and rape were common.

Pin will also be showing at EN FOCO from April 29-July 19, 2013. The exhibition will take place at Moteflore Family Health Center at 360 E. 193 Street in Bronx NY. For more information visit the EN FOCO site.

Featured and Interviewed on Asia Society Blog

On September 14, 2012, Pete Pin was featured on the Asia Society blog for his project The Cambodian Diaspora.

I am amazed at how much people genuinely want to talk about this history. Many times it's the first thing they tell me when I enter a home. I have realized that, for some people, it's not that this history has been suppressed, but rather — for a multitude of reasons — there lacks a catalyst for this dialogue.

Pete's Kickstarter campaign is days away from ending. Any additional funds will support Pete to extend his time in Lowell and Philadelphia.
