Classroom or Cell?
Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
December 2006.
After two gorgeous weeks on an island I decided it would be smart to head over to Cambodia. It wasn’t until I crossed the border when I started to read about the Khmer Rouge and the suffering the people of Cambodia went through. This picture is from the S-21 prison camp. Pol Pot and his cronies turned a high school into the biggest concentration camp. It was here where thousands of Cambodians went through and never came out. The genocide is often compared to the Holocaust.

looks like my old apt dude, sweet use of the b/w with the shading
I think this is my favorite one, it looks like it should be on the cover of national geographic or something. I did a project on the pol pot genocide a couple months ago and its a shame not many people even know about it and it was only in like the 70′s! But its a really good photograph!
