Abstract "Re-membering Culture is an exploration of the intricate dynamics of cultural memory and education that sheds light on the process of structured forgetting within the American education system. Underscoring the agency of the Hmong American community through ethnographic research, Bic Ngo shares their practices of (re)storytelling, resurgence, and refusal to illuminate how the critical consciousness fostered by re-membering serves as a powerful tool in confronting white hegemonic ideologies in education"-- Provided by publisher.
