Hello. freedom man." Since the last helicopter left the U.S. Embassy roof in Saigon 40 years ago. Vietnam has been under Communist control. And with Communist control has come a shameful human rights record. What was a hot spot in the cold war is now a cold spot for people aspiring to walk. to borrow a phrase from Hubert Humphrey. in "the warm sunshine of human rights." Vietnams postwar history began with a purge that resulted in the deaths of thousands. Hundreds of thousands of refugees escaped. Many died in the process. but many survived. Some made it to America. where they pursued the American Dream.
