SUMMARY:Eating Bitterness - Canadian Journey of Exclusion to Inclusion
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition is about the resilience of Chinese Canadians against the lasting oppressing impacts of the Chinese Exclusion Act (1923-1947) that created absences in Chinese Canadian communities\, such as generational severance\, lack of representation in leadership\, and erasure from the dominant Canadian narrative. This history has been omitted from Canadian history and continues to be primarily unknown. Highlighting key Chinese Canadian figures in the community who fought back against systemic racism through various interactive elements\, this project reflects on an important part of Canadian history and to solicit viewers to participate – how can they re-imagine a more inclusive future.  An invitation for all Canadians – What would Canada be without me and my family?
