The Vietnam War was a troubling time for ethnic groups like the Hmong who were caught in the middle of a geopolitical conflict. How did the United States respond to the presence of Hmong in neighboring Laos? How does Laos respond to them thirty years later? Do the Hmong themselves have any agency in these relationships?
