About this listen

We are joined by Amber Inthavong, author of "What We Brought Across the River, A Memoir of a Lao-American". In this episode we discuss her experience growing up as a Lao American in Colorado, her parents journey to escape the Secret War, and the leap of faith that would change their lives forever.


A moving mix of Lao history and first-gen identity, this book made us feel seen—like it was reading our own journal. It resonated deeply and stayed with us. You can find Amber's book ⁠here⁠. 📖
