The Next 50 Years: Evolving from Surviving to Thriving in the Khmer Diaspora
Professor Christine Su organized the recent Khmer Diaspora Conference: "The Next 50 Years: Evolving from Surviving to Thriving in the Khmer Diaspora." The conference took place from Friday, March 27, through Sunday, March 29, at Middlesex Community College.
The keynote address, "Memory, Healing, and the Work of Becoming," was given by Kara Uy Has on March 27. More than 350 people were in attendance from the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Cambodia, and Thailand.
Professor Su's students contributed to the conference by creating posters about the Khmer American experience that were displayed at the conference and will also be exhibited in the lobby of Lowell City Hall in May, which is Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander heritage month.
