About
I am studying Asian American Studies with a focus on Southeast Asian American literature at San Francisco State University and will be receiving my MA degree January 2013. My thesis entitled, Vietnamese American Memoirs: Writing to Mourn, Reading to Remember, critically examines three Vietnamese American memoirs: Kien Nguyen’s The Unwanted: A Memoir of Childhood, Jade Ngoc Quang Huynh’s South Wind Changing, and Lac Su’s I Love Yous are for White People. Using these three texts as exempla, my MA thesis provides a pedagogical framework to integrate SEAA literature in the classroom.
