Interview of Long Van Le and Tuyet Phoung Thi Ha

Presented here are the transcripts of two interviews. The first is between David Le and his father Long Van Le and the second is between David Le and his mother, Tuyet Phuong Thi Ha. David interviews each of his parents about their experiences in Vietnam and the United States, exploring childhood, family, feelings, adjustment, and how they got to America. They demonstrate how two people from the same place can experience their journeys as immigrants quite differently.
