What is the human impact of U.S. war and foreign policy in Southeast Asia? How do refugees continue to make sense of war, empire, and national belonging?
This webinar brings together three leading scholars of critical refugee studies to explore these questions and more. Our panel will look at a range of humanitarian efforts, refugee and migration policies, and artistic/cultural practices and performances that have formed in the wake of U.S. wars in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia. They’ll share their scholarly, curatorial, and community work focused on Vietnamese, Cambodian, and Hmong communities in the U.S. and beyond to reveal how critical refugee studies contribute unique ways of understanding issues of migration, movement, and memory work in our world today.
