    My Mini Story: Gay 2nd Generation Cambodian American

    Suny Um shares his story of struggle to survive and find acceptance as a gay, second generation*, Cambodian American.

    [*Note: In Asian American discourse, first generation is the generation who leaves the home country, 1.5 generation are those who were born abroad but came to the United States at a very young age, and second generation are those who were born in the States to parents born abroad.]
