This country’s collective memory of the Vietnam War is often shaped by American military involvement. It is easy to forget that over 2 million refugees fled Vietnam after the war, and that many of them, after harrowing and dangerous journeys across the ocean, began new lives in local communities. Their resilience is woven into the fabric of the nation, and their stories deserve to be told—in their own words.
Our Journeys: A Traveling Exhibition, created by Vietnamese Boat People (VBP), brings these forgotten stories to life through oral histories, personal artifacts, photographs, and interactive elements. The exhibition invites visitors to slow down, look, listen, and even breathe in scents that evoke powerful memories of migration, loss, and hope that continue to shape Vietnamese American families across generations.
