Meer over het boek
Focusing on the experiences of Hmong American students and educators, this exploration delves into the impact of cultural memory within the American education system. Bic Ngo argues that schools perpetuate the marginalization of non-Western knowledge, leading to the fragmentation of Hmong identity. Drawing from ethnographic research, the book highlights the challenges students face in balancing cultural heritage with Western pedagogy, as well as grassroots efforts like the Hmong Cultural Club. Ultimately, it emphasizes the agency of the Hmong community in resisting dominant narratives and fostering critical consciousness.
