Southeast Asian refugees recount stories of war and how a community garden became space for healing.
The fall of Saigon in 1975 and the genocide in Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge prompted a mass migration of Southeast Asian refugees to the United States. Many found their way to East Dallas, an area fraught with challenges. The neighborhood would be dubbed "Little Asia," where a small community garden became a vital space for healing and connection.
