  • Teresa Woo-Paw Action! Chinese Canadians Together Foundation

Abstract

2020-2021 was an unprecedented time from multiple dimensions. Unprecedented due to a major global pandemic, shifting political landscapes, and also to the marked convergence of all forms of racial discrimination and injustices in Canada. We saw the rise of anti-Asian racism in blatant, deliberate and hateful ways impacting both the physical safety as well as the social and mental well-beings of Canadians of Asian descent.
