Description:... An excellent collection of stories, writings and photographs by Hmong students in Minnesota as part of the Hmong Youth Cultural Awareness Project with grants from the the Minneapolis Public Schools. A minority in every country where they have lived, they value their independence and self-sufficiency. With help of Dave Moore and John Mundahl, Hmong students interviewed their elders in the community to capture the history and culture of their people. This book reunites the Hmong youth, who have become alienated from their culture in living in the United States, to Hmong culture and inspire self-esteem as well as helping others learn about this amazing culture.
