Description

In this episode, we talked with Professor Thao Ha (@ThaoHaPhD)-- Vietnamese  refugee, esteemed scholar, and producer of a documentary on  Vietnamese-KKK conflict in Texas, "Seadrift."  We had a fascinating  conversation about immigrant groups in the U.S., Solidarity during the  current rebellions, Vietnamese views on Blacks, the role of younger  Vietnamese in changing politics, and the future of Vietnamese-American  politics. 
Thao  Ha is a Vietnamese refugee who earned a doctorate in Sociology from the  University of Texas at Austin. She is a professor at MiraCosta College  in Oceanside, CA, and has published a variety of academic works in the  areas of race, gender, immigration, and Vietnamese American experiences  in the South. She  is an advisor and associate producer of "Seadrift," a documentary about  the racial violence and KKK intimidation that erupted in the 1970s  against Vietnamese Americans in a small Texas fishing town.
