| Abstract: | Thanh: "We were young, our hearts beating for the cause" -- Trang: "We were living a contradiction" -- Minh: "Generation at a crossroads" -- Le An: "The resistance is for me the university of life" -- Sen: "Living in the jungle was a question of habit" -- Tuyen: "With music, the revolution had more of a chance to succeed" -- Lien An: "We were in a French colony but, deep down, we remained Vietnamese" -- Xuan: "We found the ideals of liberty, fraternity and equality were not for our people" -- Oanh: "The deciding reason I did not become a refugee was I went to study in the U.S." -- Thanh: "We had private lives but suppressed them. But we are, after all, human beings" -- Trang: "I was prepared for any sacrifice or risk" -- Minh: "I led two lives" -- Le An: "The theme of our work in putting on plays was revolution" -- Sen: "We thought of ourselves as working for the people, not a particular party" -- Tuyen: "Everyone thought, if a certain event happens, all ills would be cured. Everyone was wrong." -- Lien An: "Through the education we got in the north, we understood what we had to do" -- Xuan: "There was so much hatred. We could not stay indifferent; something had to be done" -- Oanh: "'French are very nice in France, and very colonialist in the colonies.' Americans were exactly the same" -- Reuniting. |
