The Perspective of Living through the Vietnam War

We’re so incredibly proud to share the final art piece from our former Youth in Power (YIP) intern, Connie. After taking her first Ethnic Studies course, Connie felt inspired to explore her Vietnamese heritage more deeply. Through YIP, she wrote about her journey with identity, language, and self-discovery—and this comic is a beautiful continuation of that exploration. This comic piece is an interview with her mother about living through the Vietnam War.
