Chúng Tôi Đi Mang Theo Quê Hương: Intergenerational Nostalgia, Trauma, & Empathy in the Musicking of Little Saigon

No data is associated with this publication.
Abstract

Situated within intersecting discourses of nostalgia, nationalism (Anderson 1983), and popular music, my community’s musical practices go beyond performances of trauma. Through music, Little Saigon preserves the counter-memory of pre-1975 Vietnam, as post-War generations build avenues for intergenerational understandings and healing.
