This photo exhibit documents key resettlements of the Hmong community in Fresno and highlights the community’s accomplishments. The exhibit is also an opportunity for the Hmong community to take ownership of the city and country that received them at the end of the Secret War in Laos. TCOFP fellow Pov M. Xyooj believes that it is important for Hmong people to realize they are not just visitors anymore; Fresno and the U.S. are now home, and they can make changes to improve their community and their lives
