Marta Lopatkova, Lenka Formankova: Facebook Page „Confession of the Vietnamese“– Intergenerational Problems among Young Second Generation Vietnamese Migrants and Their Parents

In the past decade, Facebook has become a widely popular medium, with the Czech Republic being no exception. Following a general trend, confession pages spread rapidly in 2013 across the Czech-language Facebook environment. One of initially flourishing and still lively pages – “Confession of the Vietnamese” gained popularity not only among young Vietnamese but also among young Czechs. Our study focuses on 150 most popular posts young Vietnamese published to share experience and feelings about intergenerational problems they face in daily life. If we look at Facebook page “Confession of the Vietnamese” (Přiznání Vietnamců in Czech) from the perspective of intergenerational conflicts, it serves as an authentic group and creates an intimate safe environment where young Vietnamese find support, advice and appreciation that there are other people having exactly the same problems. Confession of the Vietnamese creates a digital community based on similar life experience, which to some extent has therapeutic character. We analyze the posts, locate and define zones of conflicts to learn more about the situation and feeling of 1.5th and 2nd generation of Vietnamese migrants in Czech Republic.
