What do you want to see in Hmoob that is possible...that you know is possible...
BUYIN A COUNTRY IS NOT
...EX from others...

1) In Korea
South Koreans made their ppl students attend school for 16 hours a day for 20 years to get Korea to the high tech state it is today...

2) In Japan
Japan is a nation of very little natural resources to build a strong nation....but with hard work...human power that is....they forged Imperial Japan to high tech material $hit world w/ little crime nation of today....THEY WERE AND STILL r GREAT

3) In "European" American States
"European" Americans did it by stealling land from Americans and built this great nation with stolen resources

Hmongs arent that yet....

HOWEVER, WE CAN...
w/out a country
ppl of the same ethnicity speaking different languages
ppl who don't have much more desire than family and love life in general
ppl scattered throuhout the world...who on the large scale..."don't really give a fcuk of other hmoob in other regions"
who dont have a sense of unity
who often downgrade themselves as incapable or thoughts of low standards because they believe it is HMOOB to do so
An almost pathetic ppl on the large scale

HOW CAN WE BE GREAT?

It's hard but this is the scenerio

FORGE THIS PATHETICISM INTO COMPETENCISM...[size="1"][/size] that's not a word.

How can Hmoob be united and rise and be great ON A LARGE SCALE, as in PEB HMOOB

The pessimism is already laid...if your to have Pessimistic views....better end your thoughts in optimistic way

Hmoob american has the best deck in starting this
This of which has already started

i heard many younger hmoobs are really into hip hop

wtf?

Err...many younger people in general are into hip hop lol. Especially them Asians.

Just by maintaining their identity, Hmong can be great. Think about it. They could have been completely assimilated into other ethnic groups (Han, Lao, American), but instead kept their ways alive. Hmong Americans can start by keeping their traditions while adapting to the American lifestyle. Already, most are doing this quite nicely.

We stand together! Hmong Americans can still keep their roots (e.g. culture, traditions, religion, etc.) while still staying within modern society (e.g. laws, culture, trends, etc.) Who says we can't?!

Many young Hmong realize this...Don't worry...Everything will work itself out.

uguuuuuu...

Hmong have a unified identity. Hmong may not have a county where they only speak their own language and practice one religion however, Hmong do have one thing in common and that is this idea of connectedness and family. You can meet anyone and form a relation with that person. For example, you meet an elderly Hmong woman and you call her grandmother. The way that Hmong identity is formed is not a specific place, but this idea that there is an entity called Hmong. Hmong are the ultimate globalized ethnic culture XD

if guess your right...hmoob always had a hard time working with one another....the way i see it...all ppl are family like...

the way kings, queens, and family based government like that come into existence is through family...strong family that is.
that punk and beat others to follow or somehow convinced them.

THEN THERE ARE THOSE WHO GET PUNK AND FOR THE COMEBACK THEY GANG UP TO FIGHT BACK...GIVING THE OPPRESSOR A REAL HARD GANG BANG.

In the past 400 years or so...this was how hmoob united...AND BECOME GREAT.

WE BECOME GREAT BY UNITING THROUGH NEGATIVE ENERGY.

THIS WAS THE CASE BEFORE.

AND IT COULD SO BE AGAIN...but not necessarily.

Nationalism,
Patriotism against oppressors,
or just plain large scale cooperation

I fantasize of a powerful "Peb Hmoob".
not necessarily military
but Strong business ties,
star athletes
and on the large scale, a people of high morals.
