  • A growing underground movement of Cambodian American hip hop artists is rapping about the struggles of living in urban America. Most, if not all of them, are refugees or children of refugees who came to the United States from Cambodia to escape the Khmer Rouge genocide of the 1970s. Through their music, the artists hope to give voice to immigrants who have been struggling quietly for years. Elizabeth Lee reports from Long Beach, California, home to the largest Cambodian community outside that country.

    Being cambodian is hard to find a voice. People don't recognize us. We need to keep fighting and find our voice through education and arts.

      It is very difficult to live in the US to feel like we belong that's why most young people join gang. I feel for the young people because it is so hard to understand where we come from and where we are going. I was so confused when I was young.
