Black April
Black April (Vietnamese: Tháng Tư đen) is a term used by Vietnamese diaspora communities who were refugees from the former South Vietnam to commemorate the Fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, marking the end of the Vietnam War and the South Vietnamese government. Black April is a day for overseas Vietnamese to honor lives lost and reflect on the hardships caused by the war; many of them were displaced in the aftermath.
In Vietnam, April 30 is a public holiday referred to as Reunification Day, commemorating the end of the "War Against American Oppression" and the beginning of the reunification of South Vietnam and North Vietnam under communism.
