The official Day to Commemorate Agent Orange victims is August 10th and marks the start of the US military’s decade of massive chemical warfare in Vietnam in 1961.
Combat, chemicals, and corporations. We’ll look at the legacy of Agent Orange, a toxic defoliant.

An urgent appeal for your support: 5 Days to raise $34,000
Truthout relies on individual donations to publish independent journalism, free from political and corporate influence. In fact, we’re almost entirely funded by readers like you.
Unfortunately, donations are down. At a moment when independent journalism is urgently needed, we are struggling to meet our operational costs due to increasing political censorship.
Truthout may end this month in the red without additional help, so we’ve launched a fundraiser. We have 5 days to hit our $34,000 goal. Please make a tax-deductible one-time or monthly donation if you can.
