I am an MLIS student at UNC-Greensboro in North Carolina working on a
paper/project for a class on information services for diverse clients.
The Hmong are the group that my team have chosen to study. My professor
asked me if the Hmong are considered refugees or immigrants today. I
believe that they would still be classified refugees according to the
United Nations definition, but cannot find any information confirming
this. Also, would the second generation Hmong that were born in the
United States be considered refugees on immigrants? Thank you for any
insight that any of you can provide for me. I am working with a team of
two other students and we want our project to be accurate.
