History: The Hmong Among Us
Enrichment Adult / Home -
AE 2526 Summer
We'll explore the history of the Hmong people from their origins in China through their migrations in Southeast Asia, their involvement with our CIA during the Viet Nam War, and eventual settlement in the U.S. Learn about their beliefs and customs, and how both have been altered by living in America. There have been many myths about the Hmong. Here is your chance to be informed about the people who are your neighbors and very often your nurse, medical technician or in St. Paul, the mayor.
