Special thanks to my dad for having this interview with me! Here are some of his band's songs and videos!
✿The Hmong Music Culture✿
Have you ever heard about the Hmong community? Over the last couple of years, I have been friends with people from this community. I have never heard of this ethnicity, so I appreciated when my friends would talk about their culture and even invite me to their New Year’s event at the Piedmont Fairgrounds. So, for this blog, I wanted to shed light over this underrated Asian community. To do that, I did both my own research and interviewed some of my close friends in this community. Your first question may be, “Where are the Hmong people from?” The Hmong American Center states that they “...originally came from China...” The Hmong people were known as nomads, so they traveled to different places like Vietnam and Laos. They were also a part of the “Secret War” of Vietnam assisting the U.S.A. My friend in this community, Olivia Moua, told me that they are known as the “Mountain people.” Although the Hmong people have no one true country, they still have a very rich culture. ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ There...
This was so fun to watch, also your dads in band?? That's so awesome. Although I don't speak the language, I did enjoy listening to the songs.
