About this listen
Putsata Reang was 11 months old when her family escaped Cambodia on a boat in 1975. When they arrived in San Diego after 23 days at sea, each member of her family was given a meal card at Camp Pendleton. More than a ticket to three free meals a day, it was a ticket to prosperity in America. But the American dream has a downside, where accepting help can be seen as an accrual of debt. Now as an adult, Putsata is reckoning with this sense of indebtedness, and finding a sense of agency after years of shaving off pieces of herself in order to assimilate.
