HMoob Cassette Tape

 

Tou Xiong

1995

 

The recording on this cassette is from a woman who lived in Laos sending a message to a family in WI to share information about some herbal medicine.

​

HMoob relied on these tiny cassettes to carry our messages to loved ones throughout the HMoob Diaspora. We capture the memories of our lives to share happiness, bittersweetness, and grief with one another across time and space.
