Hard to translate "Quê Hương" in Vietnamese roughly means "native land". The 5 million or so overseas Vietnamese (Người Việt Hải Ngoại, Người Việt Tự Do or Việt Kiều) could be seen as a true ethnic group of Vietnam (5 %), a multi-ethnic country with a total population of over 95 million people and over 55 distinct ethnic groups. Their estimated population in Taiwan is deemed to exceed 300,000.
She stood, unmoving, for no less than a minute as she observed the raising of Ukraine's flag. She, along with hundreds of others, gathered at the Alberta Legislature building in protest of the crisis imposed on Ukraine and as a sign of support.
We don't have much without a country to call home, and fellow Ukrainian Canadians in Edmonton feel this allegiance to Ukraine in the strongest possible form. It is absolutely incredible to see hundreds of Ukrainian diaspora (many of whom have never even set foot on Ukrainian soil) so devoted to protecting the integrity of the nation.
While the many rallies, fundraisers, and gatherings of support being held by Ukrainian diaspora are truly inspirational, they are rooted in abhorrent political intentions. We all look forward to a day when these rallies are no longer necessary.

Mailed September 15, 1930, to someone in Everett, Massachusetts. Mailing this back to Everett along with an accompanying letter that says the following:
POSTCARD DIASPORA
An ongoing project
Hello, thanks for opening this despite having no idea who mailed it to you. Let me fix that: My name is Christopher Goodwin and I’m an artist and writer in Durham, North Carolina. Accompanying this letter is an old postcard that has been in your house before.
You might be wondering why the heck I’m sending it to you. Well, I've collected used postcards for a long time; old postcards are like little time machines. I'm fascinated by the very particularized history that every image and message carries. The words — sometimes scrawled in haste, sometimes careful and deliberate — often give you a glimpse of the writer.
With all this in mind, I purchase old postcards in bulk to re-send to their original destination as a way for current residents to connect their home to the past. Postcards are ephemeral and too often simply thrown away. I enjoy the frozen moments in time they provide, no matter how banal the messages they bear may be.
I hope you don’t mind receiving the enclosed postcard. I encourage any feedback you might have, so please email me at chris[at]goodwinart.com or write to me using the enclosed postage-paid envelope.
This postcard is yours to keep. If for any reason you don't want it, I'd be grateful if you returned it in the envelope I included. Thank you!
PS: I’m always interested in receiving (and will often pay for) old letters, postcards, photos, paperwork, matchbooks, ticket stubs, and other types of paper ephemera. Much of my collection comprises items that have been passed down for generations; folks feel like they don’t have room for it but feel guilty tossing it in the garbage. If you know anyone in that situation, put them in touch with me.

"The Roma people have a number of distinct populations, the largest being the Roma and the Iberian Calé or Caló, who reached Anatolia and the Balkans about the early 12th century, from a migration out of northwestern India beginning about 600 years earlier. They settled in present-day Turkey, Greece, Serbia, Romania, Moldova, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Hungary and Slovakia, by order of volume, and Spain. From the Balkans, they migrated throughout Europe and, in the nineteenth and later centuries, to the Americas. The Romani population in the United States is estimated at more than one million."

This week I'm going to upload a photo from Romania everyday. These photos were taken during a roadtrip around Romania last September.
