Resources: Hmong News Media in the Twin Cities

0
0

A recent Slate article revealed that after English and Spanish, Hmong is the third most common language in Minnesota. It’s no accident, then, that there are several Hmong-language news outlets in the Twin Cities. To make finding Hmong news easier, I compiled this list of Hmong news outlets:

  • Hmong Today: At first glance it seems like the newest posts on here are from September, 2013, and it’s a little unclear whether they are actually still publishing. However, there is a lot of interesting material on here that is worth reading, especially this article about marriage equality and the Hmong community.
  • Suab Hmong News (YouTube): Suab Hmong News reports on issues impacting the Hmong community in the United States and abroad as well.
  • Suab Hmong Broadcasting: Same as above, only the website auto plays music when you land on the homepage. I have yet to find a way to turn it off. Since it offers the same news as the YouTube channel which does not auto play any music, I say stick with the YouTube channel.
  • Hmong Times Newspaper: Hmong Times is based in St. Paul. It seems more up-to-date than Hmong Today. The print version is published every other Wednesday and is available for free at various locations throughout St. Paul.
  • HBCTV: On the homepage, HBCTV has a feed that  displays news stories from all over the country that feature the Hmong community. That alone makes hbctv.net worth bookmarking. Currently, the homepage features a video from last week’s Hmong American day. More videos are available on the HBCTV YouTube channel.

News in Vietnamese

Vietnamese speakers in Minnesota can find news in their mother tongue also. Vietnam-Minnesota Radio airs on KFAI Sunday evenings from 8 – 9. Twin Cities Public Television also has a Vietnamese-language program that runs on a weekly basis.

In addition to its Vietnamese-language show, KFAI runs a Khmer-language show called Khmers in Minnesota.
