This is really great, Laura! As an American, one never really sees or hears about the Vietnamese government's perspective on the colonial era and the War. Really nice pictures of the museum artwork and stories of the dissident writers. The people my father worked with during the War were indigenous Hill tribe people who didn't really like any Vietnamese, north or south. But their history is a whole other story. There is an indigenous people's museum and park somewhere in Vietnam, perhaps Hanoi. Thank you for all your pictures and perspective.
