I gave a talk at Contra Costa College in 2000 – 8 years ago – but i think it’s still relevant. Finally managed to make it a youtube lecture, as it were. My book, Perfume Dreams: Reflections on the Vietnamese Diaspora didn’t come out until 2005 so whatever went into the lecture, turned into the book.

For those interested in the topic of Vietnam, Vietnamese Diaspora, and so on, here it is for your enjoyment:
