The debate over gun control continues in the United States, following the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Conn., in December. More than 24 years ago, a similar incident devastated the Cambodian-American community in Stockton, California.
The Cleveland Elementary School shooting shocked the nation, helping produce some of the gun laws that are now being debated today. It has not been forgotten.
The city of Stockton, east of San Francisco, is a quiet place, where time seems to stand still. There is a quaint downtown that looks much the same as it did in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In the 1980s and 1990s, it became a refuge for many Cambodians fleeing the war. A place to raise their children in peace. (Cheang Sophinarath, Stockton, CA)
