Descripción: Canada's Digital Collections. Government of Canada.
«The Boat Peoples of Indochina is a testimony to the power of imagery and the role of photography in how we see and think about war. While the name Kim Phuc is unfamiliar, the photograph of the girl who was flayed by napalm in the Vietnam War has seared itself into the consciousness of millions. It was these images of thousands in refugee camps and of survivors being plucked from the South China Sea that convinced governments around the world to accommodate the mass movements of Indochinese refugees. In this regard, Canada has set a world standard in its humanitarian acceptance of refugees.»
