Brief Hmong History Timeline

This Brief Hmong History Timeline was originally created and used during the “We Are Hmong Minnesota” exhibit at the Minnesota History Center, 2015. This timeline outlines the Hmong migration out of China into Southeast Asia, which focuses on the Hmong who had resettled in Northern Laos. Their involvement with the U.S. in the Vietnam War eventually leads them to the State of Minnesota and across other states. (Photo courtesy Galen Beery Collection)
