Suggestions please
As some of you know I will be teaching a class on Genocide starting next week. If you could please email me, poems, songs, short stories or even quotes written by genocide survivors, or about genocide, I would greatly appreciate it. These pieces can be about the Holocaust, Bosnia, Rwanda, Darfur, Cambodia, the Dirty Wars (which was politicide but I am doing a small section on that as well)...as long as they are about politicide or genocide.
Also if you have writings written by those who have taken part in genocides I am interested in those as well.
I think I want to start each class with a short reading but I am not sure, nor do I have enough to do that just yet. Your suggestions would be very appreciated.
send the suggestions to ninanuyorican at yahoo dot com. thanks

happy nu year! carlos gomez has an incredible genocide piece... dont think its online yet - but emailing him would work, im sre.
Blast from my college past: Miklos Radnoti. Hungarian poet killed in 1944. His final poems (most of which, I believe, were love letters to his wife) were found on his person after being exhumed from a mass grave in Yugoslavia.
