Lai Mi Ka Si (I Am Lai Mi): A Poetry Collection, Thang C. Lian
Lai Mi Ka Si (I Am Lai Mi): A Poetry Collection, Thang C. Lian
Journal of Southeast Asian American Education and Advancement
In this poetry collection, I combine oral history with official Burmese history to trace my family’s diasporic journey from the mountains of Myanmar to Kentwood, Michigan in 2008. To do so, I conducted interviews with my mother, father, grandmother, and grandfather over Zoom and accumulated dozens of hours of material. A rumination on refugee grief and displacement, this creative work expresses and investigates the multi-layered ritual of grief refugees conduct internally and externally—an intentional and powerful foray into the “affective.” Finally, this creative work intends to sift through the complications of transnational grief: how, when, and why do we grieve?

From Creative Writing To A Self’S Liberation: A Monologue Of A Struggling Writer, Ethan Trinh
From Creative Writing To A Self’S Liberation: A Monologue Of A Struggling Writer, Ethan Trinh
Journal of Southeast Asian American Education and Advancement
The pressure of being alone in a new country and of surviving in a competitive academia has scared me to death. I cannot find any better way to heal me other than writing. Writing helps me make sense of the worlds and come closer to my true self. This piece is journeying from my own struggles of a Vietnamese, queer, immigrant teacher to accept who I am as a writer. In addition, writing this piece helps me get closer to decademizing academic writing in higher education.

Mother's Song, Tony Innouvong
Mother's Song, Tony Innouvong
Journal of Southeast Asian American Education and Advancement
An ode to the Lao refugee experience, "Mother's Song" celebrates the resilient struggle of those displaced by the war in Laos. Like many Lao people, Tony's mother and family desperately fled Laos during the 1970s for refuge in Thai refugee camps. She and her family would later emigrate to the US where they were challenged with building a new life on new land.
