124 - UVSA Tet Festival - Billy Le and Tam Le

Please join Billy Le and Tram Le as they explain how Tết has long been an important tradition that represents Vietnamese culture. On this day, we reunite with family members from different generations to celebrate a new beginning. This upcoming new year is even more special as we are finally able to rejoin and celebrate Tết together after a tumultuous year. This year, the UVSA Tết Festival theme is “Spring of Reunion.” UVSA is beyond thrilled to welcome back over 60,000 guests to celebrate the Year of the Tiger. UVSA Tết Festival is proud to be a bridge that brings people closer through vibrant activities that highlight our Vietnamese heritage, such as: Vietnamese cultural village, live entertainment, the Miss Vietnam of Southern California pageant, festive games and rides, a variety of ethnically diverse foods, and a dazzling firecracker show celebrating the new year.

Om Podcasten

Being part of a culture of almost 100 million Vietnamese people living in the world today has its pain and challenges, but it comes with plenty of history, privileges and honors. Join Kenneth Nguyen as he spotlights Vietnamese excellence from around the world. Each episode explores the creative process of individuals shaping the diversity of what it means to be Vietnamese--as a local, born and raised, or as a third culture kid, and even the divisions that separate us politically and culturally. This show can take multiple directions, but what it will do is show Vietnamese from a transpacific lens, in all its facets and complexities.
