À propos de ce contenu audio

From the Westbank to New Orleans East, there is a vibrant community of over 20,000 Vietnamese New Orleanians. Once a week host Kim Vu invites a guest to chat about Vietnamese etiquette, ancient proverbs, Vietnamese events in New Orleans, and Vietnamese food. A Vietnamese-American recently arrived from California, Kim combines her own discovery of the local Vietnamese community with her deep familiarity and love of Vietnamese life and customs. Kim and guests weave a tapestry of fun and pho, Hanoi and poboy, as VietNola explores the world of Vietnamese New Orleanians, here and in Vietnam.

    • Tung Bach Ly - A Seriously Busy Guy - VietNOLA - It's New Orleans

      Tung Bach Ly - A Seriously Busy Guy - VietNOLA - It's New Orleans
      Feb 1 2019

      Have you ever been to the DMV or some other official kind of place and seen immigrant parents with little English proficiency helped out with the paperwork by their school aged children Tung Ly was that kid. When he was growing up in Tulsa, there were many occasions where he had to help his parents with basic stuff that many of us would have taken for granted. Nowadays Tung is still playing that role but instead of helping his parents to understand a tax form, or to renew a drivers license, he s helping staff at all levels at the City of New Orleans to understand and to adopt complicated software systems that will hopefully make their jobs easier, and improve services that are provided to the people that need them; it s an incredibly important job these days as the City makes major efforts to modernize the way it does business. Tung stops by to talk about that, and some of the many community service activities he s active in, including work with Propellor, VAYLA, and the Awesome Fund, just to name a few this week on VietNOLA.

    • Quoc Hoang - VietNOLA - It's New Orleans

      Quoc Hoang - VietNOLA - It's New Orleans
      Mar 21 2018
      In 1980, Quoc Hoang was born in a refugee camp in a Malaysian jungle. Two and a half months later, his family found itself in Canada in the dead of winter, totally dislocated from friends and family, and in a city Toronto that, at the time, had very few Vietnamese people. Now Quoc lives in New Orleans and helps run Tulane's A.B. Freeman School of Business. For Quoc, one of the surprising things about living in New Orleans has been the way the city s Vietnamese population has rekindled his interest in his own Vietnamese background. On the show, Quoc talks about growing up Vietnamese in the Great White North, and of what it was like to visit Vietnam and discover his ethnic heritage, as if for the first time.
