Abstract

Five union organizers from Vietnam and five Vietnamese American union organizers share their stories of war, sorrow, loss, displacement, and migration. But their stories also capture their hope, determination, and perseverance against the formidable obstacles they face in organizing workers to improve their jobs and their lives.
