The writers are leading human rights activists, speaking out against the atrocities in Myanmar and calling for justice. The book is significant in the sense that it points out to the lesser informed that the recent Rohingya refugee crisis did not happen overnight and is not just the result of a backlash to any so-called militancy. The discrimination, prejudice and repression have been building up over the decades, intermittently erupting in bursts of violence, the latest genocide being a culmination of all these events. Growing up a proud racist in Burma, as indeed is the title of the first chapter of the book, Maung Zarni has a first-hand understanding of the prejudices and perception that have been bred in the psyche of the people. He writes: 'Like millions of my fellow Buddhist Burmese, I grew up as a proud racist. For much of my life growing up in the heartland of Burma, Mandalay, I mistook what I came to understand years later as racism to be the patriotism of Burmese Buddhists. Our leading and most powerful institutions, schools, media, Buddhist church and, most importantly, the military, have succeeded in turning the bulk of us into proud racists.'"--Provided by publisher 650 0 $a Rohingya (Burmese people) $x Crimes against. 650 0 $a Rohingya (Burmese people) $x Violence against. 650 0 $a Rohingya (Burmese people) $x Social conditions. 650 0 $a Genocide $z Burma. 651 0 $a Burma $x Ethnic relations. 650 0 $a Rohingya (Burmese people) $x Crimes against $z Burma. 650 6 $a Rohingya (Peuple de Birmanie) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0476593 $x Crimes contre $0 (CaQQLa)000283857 $z Birmanie. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0476593 650 6 $a Rohingya (Peuple de Birmanie) $0 (CaQQLa)000288502 $x Violence envers. $0 (CaQQLa)000288502 650 6 $a Rohingya (Peuple de Birmanie) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377410 $x Conditions sociales. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377410 650 6 $a Rohingya (Peuple de Birmanie) $0 (CaQQLa)000283857 $x Crimes contre. $0 (CaQQLa)000283857 650 7 $a Ethnic relations $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00916005 650 7 $a Genocide $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00940208 650 7 $a Rohingya (Burmese people) $x Social conditions $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01983828 651 7 $a Burma $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207835 700 1 $a Brinham, Natalie, $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240517012644.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E234541E141211EF8F56A7732FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
