“On Two Fronts: Latinos & Vietnam” is a new documentary examining the impact of the Vietnam War on Latino families. Directed by Mylène Moreno, “On Two Fronts” premiered on PBS last week.
As a historian who is currently at work on a book on the same topic, and as a Chicano who is the son of a Vietnam veteran, I was honored to be interviewed for the film. My work also contributed to the education materials they produced to make the film useful to K-12 classrooms.
You can access all the classroom resources–which are aligned to the Common Core standards–by visiting the main website for the film.)
For the next month, you can watch the film in its entirety online at PBS. I hope you check it out and share it with friends and family.
