Course: Using The Latehomecomer to Study Hmong Human Rights

Using The Latehomecomer to Study Hmong Human Rights

“(My father) says, 'It is very important that you tell this part of out story: the Hmong came to America without a homeland. Even in the very beginning, we knew that we were looking for a home. Other people, in moments of sadness and despair, can look to a place in the world: where they might belong. We are not like that. I knew that our chance was here. Our chance to share in a new place and a new home. This is so important to our story. You must think about it, and tell it the way it is.'

I must tell it the way it is."
