Vietnamese immigrants and their children are the fourth-largest Asian group in the United States. These immigrants have a complex and diverse history with war, colonization, resettlement, and displacement, and second-generation Vietnamese are the largest refugee generation to experience “growing up” in American society. This study analyzes and disentangles how internalized racial oppression (IRO) manifests for these second-generation Vietnamese. IRO is an understudied topic in the literature, but increasing globalization and shifting demographics in the United States make it an increasingly relevant and timely subject of analysis because of the significant implications for identity and self-esteem. Data in this study consist of 87 in-depth qualitative interviews with second-generation Vietnamese living in Southern California. The results are analyzed using a phenomenological approach and organized into three domains: (a) work experiences, (b) intraethnic and interethnic racism, and (c) dismantling IRO through community organizations. The findings point to the significance of context and place, and the need for intersectional analyses. In White-dominated workplaces, second-generation Vietnamese are often subject to the “bamboo ceiling” and whitewashing. In the context of highly dense Asian populations, the second-generation Vietnamese experience unique interethnic racism, including markers like socioeconomic stress and refugee status. The results suggest that community organizing and ethnic organizations are facilitators that can dismantle IRO. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
