On this edition of Your Call, we continue discussing the 50th anniversary of the end of the Vietnam War with three writers involved with the Diasporic Vietnamese Artists Network, a nonprofit dedicated to moving the voices and stories of the Vietnamese diaspora from the margins to the center.
How are artists of the Vietnamese diaspora using their unique perspectives to reflect upon and transform the devastating legacy of the Vietnam War?
