From OC Weekly:
A UC Irvine anthropologist is highlighting the contributions of LGBT Vietnamese and
Vietnamese Americans in order to dispel the absurd myth that there are no gay people
in Vietnamese culture and history. Natalie Newton, a junior fellow in the school's
department of anthropology and a Vietnamese American woman whose parents moved to
the United States after the fall of Saigon, started the Viet LGBT History Campaign
in February as a response to the exclusion of the Vietnamese LGBT community from last
year's Tet parade.
