smithsonian exhibit on vietnamese american experience

A new exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution, "Exit Saigon, Enter Little Saigon," tells the story of the Vietnamese American experience in America, from 1975 (the fall of Saigon) to today: Smithsonian exhibit focuses on Little Saigon. It's curated by Vu Pham, a professor of Asian American studies who teaches at UC Irvine and UCLA. It sounds pretty fascinating, apparently the first exhibit of its kind in the nation. It runs through March 31st at the Smithsonian. For more information, go here.
