From Việt Nam to Northern Virginia

In 2024, Vietnamese Boat People (VBP) partnered with the Humanities Truck, an initiative by American University, to capture the compelling stories of the Vietnamese-American diaspora in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington DC. These interviews were conducted in Tysons, Northern Virginia, on April 20 and 21, 2024.

The "From Việt Nam to Virginia: Community Recordings" project, a collaboration between VBP and American University, aims to document and celebrate the remarkable journeys of the Vietnamese-American community in Northern Virginia, highlighting their invaluable narratives and experiences.

Coming Soon

This community project was made possible by Possibilities Inc. and partially funded by a Oklahoma Humanities Grant.

The 'From Việt Nam to Oklahoma City: Community Recordings for Digital Publication' project was made possible with partial funding from various entities including the Oklahoma Humanities and Merrick Foundation. Its objectives encompassed documenting and spotlighting the remarkable journeys of the Vietnamese-American community in Oklahoma City while ensuring public accessibility to these invaluable narratives.

We are so grateful for the support of the community in Oklahoma City in advocating for this project and special recognition goes to THN Insurance Solutions, Quill Hawk Publishing, and Asian District of OKC for their partnership.
