On this segment of MPR News with Tom Weber program, MPR’s Doualy Xaykaothao present an interview with co-founders of Maiv-PAC, the nation's first-ever Hmong American political action committee. The group sees it as another way to engage on issues of immigration, education, gender equity, and racial justice.
In the Hmong language, the word Maiv is like saying beloved or darling in front of a person's name. Over the summer, a handful of Hmong women decided the word was a perfect way to name their political action committee.
