1/1/2012

0 Comments

 
The New York Times runs an interesting article on refugee Hmong children who are now adults and writing about their experiences. The article sums up issues faced by many immigrants and their children: "In the United States, traumatic memories of wartime atrocities are often compounded by language issues, poverty and social isolation. The writers’ parents grew up not only without a written language, but without much knowledge of the outside world.""
