Daniel & Tim talk with poet Soul Vang, whose latest collection "To Live Here" is a collection of poems that unfolds as a memoir. The book tells of the Hmong experience in the US, and of Soul's experiences as a Hmong writer in Fresno CA and a US Army veteran. Soul is also a founder of the Hmong American Writers Circle http://hmongwriters.org/
For this week's Poem of the Week, Soul Vang reads "Chino" from his collection, "To Live Here."
