                <text>Pending funding, this syllabus will be updated with linked open access to chapters from the Temple University Press volume, "Toward a Framework for Vietnamese American Studies: History, Community, and Memory, set to be published in 2022).&#13;
&#13;
This course introduces students to the vibrant ethnic/immigrant/refugee community of Vietnamese Americans in all its complexities. The class begins with exploration of contemporary intellectual and political debates within Vietnamese American studies and on Vietnamese American identity(ies). The course will provide students with a history of the Vietnam War, discuss Vietnamese refugee migration to the United States, and explore how these refugees formed their communities in America. Situating Vietnamese American within a history of war and migration, the course will guide students in the examination of important and complex contemporary issues germane to the community, including anticommunism, refugeeism, transnational activism, and the politics of memory. Students will be appraised of the literature on forced migration, diaspora, memory, oral history, and community politics. The course aims to provide students with knowledge of and familiarity with the history and politics of Vietnamese America.</text>

&#13;
This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>

This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>

&#13;
This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>

This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>

This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>

This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>

This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>

This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.&#13;

This interview is part of the Vietnamese in the Diaspora Digital Archive. Interviews were conducted by the Vietnamese American Heritage Foundation as part of the national 500 Oral Histories Project. &#13;
&#13;
Additionally, this interview was recorded in the process of producing VIETNAMERICA, a feature-length film and follow-up to the short documentary, Master Hoa's Requiem. Not all interview materials were included in the final film. The film follows Master Hoa back to Southeast Asia to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Hoa escaped Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends. He is the sole survivor.</text>
