What Is Promethazine-DM Syrup Used for?
Promethazine-DM is a combination of the medications promethazine and dextromethorphan. This clear, yellowish-colored, slightly pineapple smelling liquid is sensitive to light and must be dispensed in a light-resistant container with a childproof cap. Promethazine-DM syrup is prescribed to temporarily relieve upper respiratory symptoms, such as a cough, caused by allergies or the common cold.
One teaspoon of promethazine-DM contains the active ingredients of 15 mg of dextromorphan hydrobromide, 6.25 mg of promethazine hydrochloride and 7 percent alcohol. The inactive ingredients are ascorbic acid, citric acid, D&C yellow #10, FD&C yellow #6, menthol, methylparaben, orange pineapple flavor, propylene glycol, propylparaben, purified water, saccharin sodium, sodium benzoate, sodium citrate and sucrose.
Promethazine acts as an antihistamine. It also is effective as an anti-emetic, meaning it can decrease the feeling of nausea. One of the brand names of promethazine is Phenergan, which is commonly prescribed to prevent motion sickness.
As an antihistamine, which is the desired effect in this medication, it binds to receptors in the body thereby blocking histamine, which is a protein that induces changes in cells causing itching, sneezing and increased mucus production. Promethazine affects the body quickly, within 20 minutes of ingestion. The effects can last from 6 to 12 hours.
Dextromorphan is an anti-tussive agent, meaning that it liquefies thick mucus. In this way it acts as a cough suppressant because as the mucus thins the cough reflex is decreased. Dextromorphan is absorbed into the body quickly, so it begins to act within 30 minutes. It can help limit coughs for up to 6 hours.
Promethazine-DM syrup should only be prescribed to relieve the symptoms of upper respiratory infections. This includes symptoms of cough, runny nose, sneezing and itchy watery eyes caused by the common cold, flu, allergy or hay fever. It is not effective in treating asthma.
Side Effects
Promethazine-DM syrup can induce several side effects, drowsiness being the most pronounced. Promethazine is often prescribed as a mild sedative. In addition, patients may feel dizziness, dry mouth or fatigue.
Because this medication can cause drowsiness, do not consume alcohol while taking promethzine-DM syrup as it can enhance this side effect. This medication should not be given to children younger than 2 years because it can cause respiratory depression. That is a condition in which breathing is so low that it does not support adequate gas exchange.
Do not drive or operate machinery while taking this medication. Do not take promethzine-DM if you are also taking a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI), which is commonly prescribed as an antidepressant.
Patients with heart or liver conditions should consult a doctor before taking this medication. Pregnant women should consult their doctor as the effect of promethazine-DM on a fetus is not known.

How do you see the spectrum auction this time around? The government has put up a record amount of bandwidth for sale.
We are putting a lot of spectrum on the table for operators. Basic USP of this auction is that it will end the spectrum scarcity in India once and for all.
Companies say their balance sheets are stretched, even though some such as Vodafone and Airtel have infused fresh capital. The industry has high debt. Do you think a staggered auction could have been better than a big-bang sale?
We are selling over 2,300 MHz of spectrum, which is more than what the top four operators hold cumulatively. It is obvious that the spectrum will not be sold completely. We expect that a lot of it will be sold. The idea is to give the operators a choice. Had we released less, we could have been criticized for trying to create an artificial scarcity to push up prices.
Do you think the industry is healthy enough to bid aggressively and buy?
The industry has been making profit, ebitda margin has been improving, many of them have brought in fresh equity to boost capacity to raise funds. So, I would say that the capacity of the industry to raise money is better than what it was three years back.
Some say the government is looking to make undue profit by keeping reserve prices high, especially in the 700-MHz band?
If the government was keen to make undue profit, it would not have put so much spectrum on the table. After all, an auction is all about demand and supply.
So companies cannot hide behind the excuse of bandwidth scarcity for poor consumer services.
Absolutely. There can be many reasons for poor quality of services and spectrum is one of them. But after this auction, spectrum ceases to be a reason or an excuse. The other reason for poor services is lack of infrastructure. Telcos need to invest more for towers.
Do you think industry should refrain from in-fighting, hurling accusations and allegations?
While competition is good, allegations and mud-slinging are not. There can be no two opinions about that. This kind of upheaval is bound to happen whenever a big player enters the market. We have seen this before in the telecom sector. So, I am not surprised. I am sure that it will subside in due course of time.
Pricing of Jio and free-voice offer is being seen as predatory by some, considering that 70% of the industry's revenues currently come from voice. Do you call it predatory pricing?
India is a huge market and telecom is an industry of scale. The economies of scale permit provision of telecom services at very low costs. Low prices to the consumer will not necessarily mean that companies are bleeding.
So you don't see a case of predatory pricing by Jio?
Predatory pricing is different. Low prices can also sustain profit and growth in the telecom sector because of the scale and huge market, and due to efficient technology, good policy and regulations.
Can we expect tariffs to come down further?
Absolutely. The consumer is likely to get the best deal when efficiencies are driving down costs for the operators.... increase in competition will drive prices down, which will benefit the consumer.

Grandidierite was first discovered in 1902 in Madagascar by Alfred Lacroix, a French mineralogist. It was named for French explorer and naturalist Alfred Grandidier. This mineral is only found in a few locations (Namibia, Sri Lanka, Malawi and Madagascar). It is quite rare and is a valuable healing tool.
This stone resonates with the throat and heart chakras to improve honest communication and ensure that one speaks from the heart. It is useful in reducing inflammation in the throat, tonsils, ears and bronchi and will assist those who are short of breath. Grandidierite encourages open and loving relationships and supports thoughtful emotional decisions. It discourages one from speaking in anger and teaches that conflict should be resolved with compassion and understanding.

A few days ago, I was meeting with union representatives at the Association of Professional Flight Attendants. We were collecting facts about an incident aboard a San Francisco-to-Dallas flight involving a flight attendant, a stroller and an irate passenger in the first-class cabin. During our meeting, I received a report of a flight attendant on a flight from Sydney to Los Angeles who had been grabbed by the throat by a passenger. The same week, a flight attendant emailed to describe seats ...

Watermelon is now one of the major produce in Libjo. Summer is harvest time for watermelon. It is now being transported in huge numbers, in hundreds of tons. If you could imagine before a stock file of Chromite, that is how huge is the file for watermelon harvested in Libjo. It is now becoming the preferred plant after coconut. Appears to be like Coco Copra trade in the old days.
Watermelon is both a fruit and a vegetable and plant of a vine-like (climber and trailer) herb originally from southern Africa and one of the most common type of melon.
Fresh watermelon may be eaten in a variety of ways and is also often used to flavor summer drinks and smoothies. A one-cup serving of watermelon will provide around 48 calories. Watermelon is an excellent source of vitamin C and vitamin A, with one serving containing 14.59 mg of vitamin C and 556.32 IU of vitamin A. Watermelon also provides significant amounts of vitamin B6 and vitamin B1, as well as the minerals potassium and magnesium. Pink watermelon is also a source of the potent carotenoid antioxidant, lycopene.

My social media feeds may portray weekend tramping adventures, but, just so you're not fooled, I'm still a full-time grad student. My Master of Teaching and Learning coursework at the University of Canterbury started three weeks ago, and I love that facet of life here too.
I've got just as much of an academic-prone mind as I do a mountain soul, and it feels really good to be back in a learning environment. My 22 other classmates and I come from a variety of professional, geographic, and generational backgrounds, but we're all bright and have landed in this course because we are passionate about helping young people.
All young people.
Which is what is especially awesome about this program. It has a strong emphasis on diverse learning and inclusive education, particularly toward Māori students. Up to a few weeks ago, I was pretty ignorant about all things Māori – a term referring broadly to the many indigenous tribes who already inhabited New Zealand prior to its colonization in the early 1800s.
Like most people groups, the Māori have been marginalized since imperialism's greedy hands reached this Pacific shore. However, the Brits considered them to be of a higher "civilized" standard than natives they encountered in other parts of the world. The Treaty of Waitangi, signed in 1840, is a document which acknowledges the Māori as the owners of their land and gave them the same rights as British subjects; in exchange, the crown took on governmental control. This document was and continues to be very controversial because the Māori and English translations differ substantially ("government" and "full sovereignty" sure don't mean the same thing).
Assimilating to pākehā (white man) ways, Māori once came close to losing their heritage, traditions, and language. Fortunately, there has been a cultural revitalization in the last few decades, and much has been preserved.
As future educators that need to be knowledgeable and supportive of our students' backgrounds, all this Māori history means field trips for us. A few days ago, we visited the Rehua Marae. A marae is the communal meeting ground for a tribe, and there is one smack dab in the middle of Christchurch! While cars zoom right on by, an easily-missed driveway reveals a small pocket of peace in a bustling city.
Schmo-Joe can't just walk on to a marae. A pōwhiri (pronounced po-feer-(d)ree) must be performed for anyone who has never been to the grounds before. It's a pretty intense ritual of encounter that was once used to determine whether visitors were friends or foes. Now it's done to welcome new visitors and to maintain cultural traditions. I've only been in New Zealand three weeks, and I've already been a part of five pōwhiris.
They're really cool, but with eight official steps, they also take a while. You have to stand outside the grounds, and a woman calls a song of welcome. Another woman with your group answers, and you start slowly walking forward. The locals standing on the steps sing an intimidating, powerful song and dance (haka). (The next day we were on the flip side welcoming others on. I lost my voice a little from scream-chant-singing so loud).
Eventually you take off your shoes and are led inside, where the locals stand on one side and the new visitors on the other. Over the course of anywhere from twenty minutes to a few hours, the two groups exchange welcomes, speeches, singing, gifts, and hongis.
Lemme elaborate on those for a moment.
Welcome and Speeches
The whole pōwhiri is spoken almost entirely in Te Reo Māori. E.g. I can't understand anything beyond Kia Ora (which means welcome/hello/nice job/thank you) Lots of smiling on my part.
This is also when Mihimihis are exchanged, which lists out a person's lineage and identity. People have memorized their genealogy pretty far back, so this also can go on a while. The purpose is to find connections between the two groups or speakers.
Confession: It's kind of easy to zone out when you don't know what's being said.
Māori people love to sing. Lots. I really like this tradition; for me, it's a combination of memories of camp songs and worship. There's something about singing that brings people together. We have been learning a new waiata each week in class. My favorite so far is Tutira mai nga iwi.
The lyrics in English go like this:
Line up together, people
All of us, all of us.
Stand in rows, people
All of us, all of us.
Seek after knowledge
and love of others – everybody!
Think as one,
Act as one.
All of us, all of us.
It's standard to bring $5 each as a token of gratitude for the hosts' hospitality. And what graciousness! Especially through kai. We'll get to that in a second.
Nose/Forehead Ritual of Encounter
The Māori version of a handshake. Everyone stands in a line, and one by one, you press your forehead and nose gently against the person you meet. If you've never done it, it sounds kind of weird, but I like it. It breaks down barriers. Since the head is holy, it also shows a lot of respect toward a stranger.
This is an oft-used word that has infiltrated kiwi speech ("Hey wanna go grab some kai?"). We were fed well. The ceremony is pretty serious, and as you sit in each other's presence, it almost seems like a mingling of souls. Kai is always at the end to bring closure to the pōwhiri, lighten the mood, and interact with the guests and hosts.
We were only there for 24 hours, but there was a LOT of kai. Morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner. We never spent more than three hours of the day away from the dining hall. It was always blessed, and it gave good time for strangers to get to know each other. Māori people take hospitality very seriously, and it's most evident in their delicious food.
For me, a lot of our time on the marae felt like a church youth group retreat – people coming together, learning new things, singing, sleeping on mats. For being in a completely different context, it was uncannily familiar. I guess it should be, though, because Maori don't forget about the spirit – of an individual, of God, of community. Lots of people commented on how peaceful, calm, and happy the space was. You could feel it.
Because the most powerful group tends to take charge and establish norms, the pākehā way has usually been seen as "right" in New Zealand. But before I begin teaching them, Māori people are teaching me a lot. I don't know their language, and the time-efficient part of me still thinks it is a bit redundant to hold a pōwhiri every time a stranger enters the grounds. They understand community and respect and what it means to look out for each other, though. They are open and welcoming. Whanau, family, is one of the most important parts of their culture. Whanau isn't just one's nuclear family. Whanau whanau means the extended family, and the word reaches even further to refer to the whole community. As visitors, we became part of the whanau at the marae.
With an unfamiliar people group, there is an inevitable hint of an "us versus them" dichotomy. Visiting the marae helped break that down for me. As one of my classmates poignantly observed, our new family first included us. Now, we can actively strive to be inclusive teachers, making our class a whanau of its own.
Signing off as the Māori say,
Aroha ki te tangata
Love to all mankind

June marks National Dairy Month, a time to celebrate drinking milk and to recognize the contributions of the dairy industry.
Originally, Dairy Month started off as National Milk Month in 1937 as a mechanism to stabilize dairy demand during a surplus, according to the International Dairy Foods Association.
So, in honor of National Dairy Month, here are some cool facts from the Southeast United Dairy Industry Association, Inc. about milk, the industry and the general awesomeness of dairy cows.
- The first recorded account of cows being milked dates to 9000 B.C.
- Each dairy cow produces about 200,000 glasses of milk throughout its life. Some cows, however, can produce upwards of 350,000 glasses.
- So how many squirts of milk does it take to make a gallon? Approximately 350.
- More than 300 varieties of cheese are sold in the U.S.
- Eat something too spicy? Drink a glass of milk – a protein called casein will help soothe your palate.
Throughout June, Neogen's blog will feature dairy-related stories to mark National Dairy Month. So, in addition to some cool cow facts, check out this story about some pampered dairy cows getting massages and relaxing on water beds.

On the other hand, that has established to become a very popular sector with any multi-billions in annual revenues. At first, generally there were fairly few travel operators but simply by now presently there are very literally lots of real online casinos, all competing with every single other regarding their players' devotion. Any time the principal product is actually gambling, precisely how does the casino deliver something special and specific to typically the table for you to bring gamers to your own personal front doorway?
Numerous casino games online declare to be typically the first firm to get come upward with the actual solution, along with while the actual validity involving this assertion is upwards for issue, their tale is engaging. Unlike some other casinos that were created online, firms made their particular start through partnering along with land-based internet casinos and seeking to function out exactly what they provided that on-line casinos failed to. The response was workers comp rewards. Any real casino will not just supply games, this showers a person with most manner associated with freebies inside order to be able to keep a person coming again time as well as time once again. Arguably typically the free stuff they offer you have some sort of dual goal, but that is aside from typically the point: in the event that you invest money actively playing at the best casinos online, you receive lots involving free goods.
And therefore the plan of online casino bonuses ended up being born - a advantages system to be able to thank participants for their own business, along with to encourage them in order to play a lot more.

Happy Furniture = Multi-Purpose Furniture
(P.S. I almost called this "multi-porpoise furniture" to be silly but I didn't want you guys to think I only buy furniture if it has dolphins on it. That would be weird. I haven't done that since my Lisa Frank days.)
In my opinion, furnishing a house can be stressful. I'm a worry wart so I'm always over-thinking my furniture purchases. I don't want to get a piece that is going to be seen as "trendy" and I'll hate in a year or two. And I worry that it would be a "one hit wonder". You know… the kind that you only find one use for and you can only use it in that one way. What if I change my mind? What if I want to move it?
USE #1- Well, as a Bookcase…
So when I actually do get new furniture, I always look for it to be multi-purpose and versatile. I want that baby to be able to hold just about anything and go anywhere! And I want fit with our style. Because if it fits our style, it will go with all the other pieces we love as well. And if it is versatile and fits our style, that piece is in it for the long haul.
Remember my Sauder tall bookcase I showed you a few months ago? It is a perfect example of a multi-purpose piece. We put it in our master bedroom and filled it with books. But then we started our giant replace-ALL-the-floors project and all the books got boxed for the time being. So then it took on a new use…
USE #2 – Craft Storage
Being the crazy DIY-er I am, I still needed access to my craft supplies even when my house is in shambles.
So I put my most used supplies all pretty-like in this gorgeous tall bookcase.
And, of course, by "most used" craft supplies, I mean most of them.
Then, once the craft supplies were able to get out of our master bedroom and put back to their original location, the bookcase got another use…
USE #3 – Extra Closet Space
It is the one it is being used as currently. This use came mostly out of necessity. You see, we ripped out our master closet back in September so we could replace it with not falling apart shelves. But then we stalled out. So this bookcase became our makeshift closet.
Since we didn't have anything in our closet (except new flooring) the bookcase became our shelving for housing sweaters, jeans, even some spare towels.
Lucky for me, it is gorgeous enough that it almost looks like the kind of display you would find at a retail store. Or at least it can look that way when I fold things nicely and the hubs doesn't just shove things in each cubby.
All in all, I'm pretty happy with almost all of the pieces of furniture I have acquired for our home. If I stick to finding pieces that are versatile and fit our style, I almost always end up as a happy camper (except I hate camping). And you know what they say… happy camper…. happy………. furniture? I don't know. But if that furniture came to life all-Disney-like and sang a song, I'm sure it would be about how happy it was that I was happy with it. Right? Aaaand now I'm imagining my furniture singing à la Beauty and the Beast. I have a feeling that the ottoman would be German. Weird.
Interested in other multi-purpose furniture pieces? Check out my Pinterest board.
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Sauder. The opinions and text are all mine.

Prague, Czechia
Prague (Praha, Prag) is the capital and largest city in Czechia. Situated in the north-west of the country on the Vltava river, the city is home to about 1.3 million people, while its metropolitan area is estimated to have a population of 2.6 million. Main attractions include Prague Castle, Charles Bridge, Old Town Square with the Prague astronomical clock, the Jewish Quarter, Petřín hill and Vyšehrad. Since 1992, the extensive historic centre of Prague has been included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites. Prague was founded in the later 9th century, and soon became the seat of Bohemian kings, some of whom ruled as emperors of the Holy Roman Empire. The city also went under Habsburg rule and became the capital of a province of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
Berlin, Germany
The history of Berlin starts with its foundation in the 13th century. It became the capital of the Margraviate of Brandenburg in 1417, and later of Brandenburg-Prussia, and the Kingdom of Prussia. Prussia grew rapidly in the 18th and 19th century, and formed the basis of the German Empire in 1871. The 1 September 1939 Germany invaded Poland and the Second World War was declared. Berlin was demolished at the end of the conflict by the British and American aerial bombings, as well as by the progress of the Russian army. The Berlin Wall was built by East Germany in 1961 and divided the city both physically and ideologically until 1989.

MTV Networks' (NYSE: VIA) Nickelodeon is readying the first of 600 casual games that will be introduced across its collection of websites, NYT reports. The games are part of the Nickelodeon Kids and Family group's planned $100 million investment to create games through 2009. Separately, MTVN said last August, a few weeks after Nickelodeon announced its gaming investment, that it would spend $500 million on creating games on its websites through 2009 as well.
— Gaming strategy: To get a sense of the importance Nickelodeon holds for games, the network says 25 million unique users were drawn to its online games last month. The closest competitor is Yahoo (NSDQ: YHOO) Games, which drew 15.5 million uniques that same month, according to comScore; Electronic Arts (NSDQ: ERTS) and Disney (NYSE: DIS) followed with 12 million each. Social nets, like MySpace and Facebook, are positioning themselves to grab a slice of the gaming pie as well. Nickelodeon's games will be situated on sites that correspond to a variety of kid-related demos: pre-schoolers, tweens, teenage boys, moms. The greatest growth prospects appears to be with the ones that aim just above the youngest plaxyers. For Nickelodeon, that's Nick.com, the step up from pre-school oriented Nick Jr. Nick.com attracted about 7.9 million uniques last month, comScore (NSDQ: SCOR) said; the company expects to release another 185 games on Nick.com this year.
— Revenue model: In general, kids and advertising have always represented a minefield for media companies and advertisers. Back in December, we highlighted the backlash triggered when kids virtual world operator/toy marketer Webkinz began putting advertising on its site, which can only be accessed after purchasing a $15 stuffed animal. As a result of the sensitivities involved, most revenue models related to games aimed at kids remains in a cautiously experimental phase. At this point, many game sites are offering "try-before-you-buy" plays. Other common methods rely on clearly labeling ad inserts and micro-transactions, where players can purchase items and levels within games. On Nickelodeon, sponsored and pay-to-play games are always identified as ads. Many of the ads on sites for young children, such as Noggin's site, feature banners and display ads for vacation packages and electronic retailers, which are aimed at parents.

Massacre At Hue
- Created on Tuesday, 09 April 2013 09:35
- Written by By Gucci
Most people heard of My Lai atrocity, but a few would know of Hue massacre. Today some Hanoi's sympathyzers have even tried to whitewash the war crime by saying the Hue massacre never happened. It sounds just like the neo-nazis saying the Holocaust is a myth. The two following articles will offer you a better perspective.
In the darkness of the 1968 Tet's Eve, North Vietnamese Communist Army units conducted a surprise attack at Hue City, while the two sides were in a truce that had been agreed upon previously. South Vietnamese Army units defending the city were not in good positions to fight as they expected that the enemy would abide by their 4-day cease-fire promise, as they did in the preceding years. On the first day of the new year - the Year of the Monkey - Hue City streets were filled with NVA soldiers in baggy olive uniforms and pithy hats.
The communist cadres set up the provisionary authorities. The first thing they did was call all ARVN soldiers, civil servants of all services, political party members, and college students, to report to the "revolutionary people's committee." Those who reported to the communist committee were registered in control books then released with promise of safety.
After a few days, they were called to report again, then all were sent home safe and sound. During three weeks under NVA units' occupation, they were ordered to report to the communist committee three or four times. In the late half of January 1968, the US Marines and the South Vietnamese infantry conducted bloody counterattacks and recaptured the whole city after many days of fierce fighting that forced their enemy to withdraw in several directions.
Meanwhile, those who were called to report the last time to the communist authorities disappeared after the Marines and South Vietnamese Army units liberated Hue. Most of the missing were soldiers in non-combat units and young civilians. No one knew their whereabouts.
In late Feb.1968, from reports of Vietnamese Communist ralliers and POWs, the South Vietnamese local authorities found several mass graves. In each site, hundreds of bodies of the missing were buried. Most were tied to each other by ropes, electric wires or telephone wires. They had been shot or beaten or even stabbed to death. The mass graves shocked the city and the whole country. Almost every family in Hue has at least one relative, close or remote, who was killed or still missing. The latest mass grave found in the front yard of a Phu Thu district elementary school in May 1972, contained some two hundred bodies under the sand. They had been slaughtered during one-month occupation of an NVA unit. Sand left no sign of a mass grave below until a 3rd-grader dug the ground rather deep for a cricket.
Besides more than two thousand persons whose deaths were confirmed after the revelation of the mass graves, the fate of the others, amounted to several thousands, are still unknown.The 1968 massacre in Hue brought a sharp turn in the common attitude toward the war. A great number of the pre-'68 fence sitters, anti-war activists, and even pro-Communist people, took side with the South Vietnamese government after the horrible events. After April 30, 1975 when South Vietnam fell into the hand of the Communist Party, it seems that the number of boat people of Hue origin takes up a greater proportion among the refugees than that from the other areas.
Since April 1975, the Vietnamese Communist regime deliberately moved many families of the 68-massacre victims out of Hue City. People in the city however, still commemorate them every year. Because the people are mingling the rites with Tet celebrations, Communist local authorities have no reason to forbid them.
Most Americans knew well about the My Lai massacre of US Army Lieutenant Calley where from 200 to 350 persons were killed. The '68-massacre in Hue however, has not been covered at the same proportion by the English language media. When a Tet Offensive documentary film by South Vietnamese reporters was shown to the American audience of more than 200 US Army officers in Fort Benning, Ga. in November 1974, almost 90 percent of them hadn't been informed of the facts. Many even said that had they known the savage slaughter at the time, they would have acted differently while serving in Vietnam.
The US Navy has a warship named "Hue City." It is not known how many of her sailors realize that the city she carries as a name suffered so much. Would it be a good idea to have a rite once a year in the Tet season on the "Hue City" for the dead whom the US Marines were fighting for in February 1968?
Animosity should not be handed down to younger generations, but our descendants must be taught the truth. War crimes must not be forgotten, and history is not written by one-sided writers.
Reposted from VietQuoc Homepage
An other writing relates a bit about Hue Massacre, but more interestingly it offers an insightful perspective on how the "academic intellectuals" still biased against South Vietnamese when showcasing the Vietnam war. Please continue the article below.
A Smithsonian exhibit of the World War II bomber the Enola Gay is being criticized for its failure to mention the destruction the plane caused when it dropped the bomb on Hiroshima. Vietnamese Americans in California say an upcoming Oakland exhibit on the Vietnam War commits a similar crime.
California's Vietnamese refugees are incensed and claim that the exhibit at the Oakland Art Museum scheduled for 2004 does not give them adequate representation. They are also protesting the firing of a Vietnamese American employee at the museum who spoke out against the exhibit.
The museum received a National Endowment grant for a retrospective exhibit on the Vietnam War and its impact on California. The grant stipulates that the Next Stop Vietnam exhibit should engage in a dialogue with the community, but very little of that has happened, according to Mimi Nguyen, who says she was fired after repeated efforts to call the museum's attention to the cursory representation of Vietnamese voices and experience. Instead, she says, the exhibit focuses on the experience of the U.S. veteran community and does not represent the experience of not only Vietnamese, but other Southeast Asian groups that populate California.
In a letter to the museum's administration which was leaked to Vietnamese language press, Nguyen wrote, "Fifty-eight thousand American GIs died in the war. Some four million Vietnamese perished, and an entire nation collapsed. Shouldn't Vietnamese Californians have equal stake and voice in this exhibit?"
She wrote that initial agreements to interview Vietnamese living in California on their reaction to U.S. troops arriving in Vietnam were retracted and eliminated from the exhibit.
"Thanh was eight when American troops tossed a grenade into his family's bomb shelter. The grenade ruptured his vocal cords and disfigured his face. Duong was eleven when strayed bullets ruptured his spinal cord, leaving him paraplegic; he overcame many obstacles to become an Assistant Professor of Education at UCLA today," she wrote.
She says Vietnamese are portrayed as refugees at the end of the war without struggle, heritage, history and past.
She wonders if the stories were neglected because the public cannot handle the realities of the Vietnam War. "Or are we uncomfortable with the truth because Vietnam reminds Americans of our discomforting role in transforming the Persian Gulf? Wouldn't this reality shake people out of their comfort zone to deal with 'collateral damage' in Iraq and Afghanistan?"
The exhibit will highlight the widely known My Lai massacre where American forces attacked a Vietnamese village, but she says other atrocities like the Hue Massacre deserve to be uncovered. The memories still haunt survivors living in California. During the Hue massacre, some 4,000 students, professors, doctors, government officials and their families were buried alive by the Vietnamese Communist soldiers in mass graves.
Some 21 U.S. veterans were interviewed for the exhibit compared to only one or two South Vietnamese soldiers, she wrote. "Over one million South Vietnamese men were under arms, and many are now Californians whose stories deserve our attention and a better history than the United States allows."
She says Vietnamese play a valuable part of the California landscape and deserve an exhibit that speaks to them. "Refugees include sons, daughters, nieces, nephews and grandchildren of former South Vietnamese officials, who are transforming California and the nation as well. Vietnamese engineers and assembly line laborers helped build Silicon Valley, the engine of California's economy that was generating wealth and income, making California the richest state in the country."
The largest overseas Vietnamese population resides in California, numbering some half a million, and yet their views are not well represented, Nguyen says. The Vietnamese community, from Oakland to San Jose to Orange County, plan to circulate petitions and protest the museum's actions. Last week the deputy mayor of Garden Grove held a townhall meeting on the issue. Other Southeast Asian groups as well as a cross-cultural mix of immigrant and advocacy groups plan to join the Vietnamese in their protests. They include the American Civil Liberties Union, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and PUEBLO, a local activist organization.
