Episode description
Do you speak Vietnamese?” For many in the Vietnamese diaspora, this simple question evokes not-so-simple feelings —whether you’re from the North or the South, educated before or after 1975, a fluent speaker or someone learning as an adult. In this episode, producer Saoli Nguyen examines the interplay between language and identity, and the role of Vietnamese as both a connecting and dividing force in our culture.
