Call for Submissions: Mỹ Việt Story Slam

Description:

Many of us have experienced losses that have changed our lives. We have lost loved ones to war, harsh living conditions and arduous migrations or to illnesses, age and more recently to the pandemic. But sometimes the loss can be an invaluable object, a community, a place we call home or a state of being. The process of losing someone or something that is irreplaceable can turn our world upside down. However, the journey to heal can lead us to finding ourselves again. For 2022 Vietnamese Boat People invite you to share your experiences of loss and the journey to reclaim and rebuild. This year's theme: LOST & FOUND.

Five Storytellers will be selected to share their stories in a virtual live streamed event in May and win cash and goodies from Asian-owned businesses!

Deadline: April 4, 2022
