Summary

Following the communists' victory in the Vietnam War in 1975, hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese refugees fled the country, most of them by boat. Many of these "boat people" hoped to settle in the United States, which had played a major role in the war, backing the side that lost to the communists. Should the U.S. government allow the Vietnamese "boat people" to settle in the United States, or should their numbers be restricted?

This eBook examines the Vietnamese "boat people" and delves into the pro and con arguments that surrounded their entry into the United States. It includes a timeline, primary sources, a bibliography, and a "Learn More About" chapter with more information on the topic.
