"The Mystery People"
by

long time ago when after the dinosaurs died and glaciers melted, lived millions of people. Everyone knows that there are Indians, Africans, Mexican, English and many more simple ethnics. But no one knew one main group that was a group of mystery people, my people, Hmong. No one knew that we had to give up our land, family, belief and dreams. All of that was turn upside down. This is how it started.

Hmong start there life away from Chinese villages in China. The Chinese goverment force us out because he wanted us to speak chinese and do everything like chinese. Hmong would all run to Laos and live there for a long time. Until the Vietnam War, Americans told Hmong to help them fight the war. We promise and millions of fathers faught and died. Many families had to be apart. Many Hmong had to die and leave there kids into orphans. Everyday kids would cry and say where is my family.

So all the Hmong who survive move to Thailand Refuges Camps. The camps were bad to stay in. There were a fence that won't let our people go out. No food and no nothing and you had to have a paper to get out and in. If you did not have a paper you had to be kill by Thai. So some Hmong went to America.

Americans would call us chinese, go back to your country, and leave. They don't know help them fight a war that made us come to America. If that never happened Hmong would never be in America. Hmong had to change there religion and believe in Jesus. Some hmong did not so we stay in our own culture. We been through all hard times.Therefore, WE THE HOMNG!



The End
