Begin a FRONTLINE/World viewing club.
Much like a book club, a FRONTLINE/World viewing club gives you a chance to share and compare reactions with friends, neighbors and colleagues. Start your own viewing club by first checking for upcoming episodes. Visit the Web site a day or two before the broadcast to access facts, stats, story synopses and maps, and distribute them to your club. Then just tape the episode for later viewing or gather your viewing club the night of broadcast -- and start talking! More information on starting a viewing club is available here.

"Very eye-opening. I knew very little about Cambodian history. Encouraged me to learn more about it and pay attention to world news."

"I'm very thankful to attend this special event. The documentary and speakers have enlightened me more about my culture and reminded me how vital it is to remember the past."

--Participants at a recent FRONTLINE/World screening and discussion on Cambodia, hosted by the Cambodian Student Society at Cal State Long Beach
