Being Khmer is often treated as synonymous to being Cambodian. But many ethnicities are woven throughout the Kingdom's rich tapestry, as social commentator Din Darathtey and Cambodian Living Arts executive director Prim Phloeun join the podcast to discuss

A conversation with Arn Chorn Pond, the human rights activist, musician, and public speaker who escaped the Khmer Rouge in his native Cambodia as a young child, after witnessing the horrors of war and suffering unimaginable loss. Brought to the U.S. by a New Hampshire minister, Pond found his way to Providence College and established a meaningful relationship with Rev. John F. Cunningham, O.P. '50, the College's 10th president. Music is a thread the runs through Pond's life. It helped save him during the time he was held by the Khmer Rouge, it was part of the way he learned to express himself, and he has used it to help and inspire others. Pond spoke with us from Cambodia, where the organization he founded, Cambodian Living Arts, works to preserve the performing arts in that country.Follow the Providence College Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Play, and YouTube.  Visit Providence College on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat, and LinkedIn.  

(S2, Ep 9) In this week's episode, Cambodian Artist and Musician, Punisa Pov joins me as my guest for the podcast. Punisa was born and raised in Cambodia. She has been living in the US, first as a college student in Iowa, and currently working as a resident musician and artist for the National Cambodian Heritage Museum the past few years. Punisa has been singing and playing music nearly her entire life, devoting her craft to honor Cambodian traditional music which was nearly destroyed during the time of the Khmer Rouge. In this interview, she talks about her music, as well coming to terms with the loss of her mother, and the importance of how her art has helped to teach and heal both elder and younger Cambodian Americans.

Bio: Punisa Pov is a Cambodian musician, who is currently a full-time musician with the National Cambodian Heritage Museum & Killing Fields Memorial, where she teaches and performs. The Khmer Rouge executed 90% of artists, whom they specifically targeted to kill. Only a handful of master musicians survived the genocide. Punisa is one of the selective young musicians from Cambodia, who have been mentored by survived master musicians. She started learning the Pin Peat music and instruments at age of 12 in 2003 with the Cambodian Living Arts, Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Punisa has consistently performed Cambodian classical and traditional music in Cambodia and in the U.S. She has also collaborated with contemporary musicians from Cambodia as well as from Europe and the U.S. Her Cambodian classical and traditional music classes introduce the joy of music to local Cambodians of all ages as well as to non-Cambodians. Her performances to the museum visitors always brings a poignant moment to remember that the music she plays was almost abolished during the Cambodian genocide, thus to signify the unique role that Punisa plays in the Museum and Memorial. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/banhmichronicles/support

2019.10.02 Born into a family of artists, Arn grew up in Cambodia during the Khmer Rouge regime. He spent his youth in a child labor camp, forced to play propaganda music, before being adopted and raised in the US. He returned to Cambodia on a mission: to unearth his family’s legacy and to find his former music teacher and the stars of his childhood. On this trip, Cambodian Living Arts (CLA) was born. Over the last two decades, CLA has grown into one of Cambodia’s leading arts organizations, striving to be a catalyst in a vibrant arts sector and to inspire new generations.

In this episode of Beyond Year Zero I explore the impact of the Khmer Rouge regime on the arts in Cambodia - asking how did the arts survive, what efforts are being made to revive them, and what role do the arts play in contemporary Cambodia today? The podcast includes interviews with Cambodian kickboxing champion Chan Rothana, community gallery owners Lolli and Ajin from Nowhere Art Gallery, and Arn Chorn-Pond, the founder and head of the Cambodian Living Arts foundation. Through their stories, I attempt to examine the role that the arts play in helping a country to rebuild after mass violence, it's capacity to resist that violence in the first place, and what this can tell us about the nature of the human spirit and society in general. I hope you enjoy the inaugural episode of Beyond Year Zero: Cambodia Then and Now!
