Late fall is the most spiritual time of the year in traditional Hmong culture. There are centuries-old celebrations for the post-harvest “new year," brought from Southeast Asia which the Hmong had to flee after helping the United States in the Vietnam War. They include calling back the household souls, renewing shamans’ healing spirits and eating 30 different dishes while wearing new embroidered clothes. For many Hmong elders and spiritual leaders, it’s critical that these animistic traditions be passed on to the diaspora youth. “You preserve it here, or you have nowhere,” says one father in St. Paul, Minnesota, who fled across the Mekong River as a child, helping his grandfather carry shaman bells.
