Minnesota has always been a land of immigrants. Successive waves have each made their own way, found their place, and made it their home. The Hmong are one of the most recent immigrant groups, and their remarkable and moving story is told in Hmong in Minnesota. Chia Youyee Vang reveals the colorful, intricate history of Hmong Minnesotans, many of whom were forced to flee their homeland of Laos when the communists seized power during the Vietnam War. Having assisted U.S. troops in the "Secret War," Hmong soldiers and civilians were eligible to settle in the United States. Vang offers a unique window into the lives of the Minnesota Hmong through the stories of individuals who represent the experiences of many. One voice is that of Mao Heu Thao, one of the first refugees to come to Minnesota, sponsored by Catholic Charities in 1976. She tells of the unexpectedly cold weather, the strange food, and the kindness of her hosts. By introducing readers to the immigrants themselves, Hmong in Minnesota conveys a population's struggle to adjust to new environments, build communities, maintain cultural practices, and make its mark on government policies and programs. Chia Youyee Vang was born in Laos and as a child escaped with her family to the United States. An assistant professor of history at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, she specializes in the study of Hmong community-building efforts.Binding Type: Paperback

These are the only cotton rounds I do not break out with. I use them to cleanse my eyelids along with micellar water for my face.

MUST HAVE for me!!
LOVE LOVE!!
These are most perfect for make up removal and I use them to apply toner as well. Soft and cushiony. I have tried other styles and they don't compare. There are durable, don't shred when you use them like traditional cotton balls They don't "pill" on your face when using them.

Best Cotton "Pillows" I've Ever Used
How much do I love these soft, thick, and durable cotton pads? I got tired of running out (I use them every day) so I ordered a carton with packages of 100! So simple to use...there's a tiny "pocket" on one side you can put your fingertip in for accuracy, if you choose! They soak up enough nail polish remover to do the job, but are so strong they don't shred like a cotton ball would.

The best gentle pad
I use these constantly to clean my Chinchilla Persian Cats nose which is always leaking. These pads are gentle on his nose and don't shed which I luv. There"s a little slit on one side to use if you want to slip your finger into to hold. These pads are soft on both sides. I dampen them before using. The shape to me is better than the round pads and also the edges are not rough like many round pads are.
