Overview
The Cheng Yu Tung East Asian Library at the University of Toronto is pleased to announce that the publication Asian Canadian Voices: Facets of Diversity is now available!
We are delighted to bring together eleven perspectives from diverse fields of research to share their remarkable stories, reflections and insights relating to Asian Canadian heritage and experience. The collaborative effort of many gracious contributors, and the symbiotic dialogues from our significant East Asian Library lecture series during 2012-2014 entitled “Tides on Our Pacific Shore: Celebrating Asian Canadian Heritage” and “Asian Canadian Conference: Engaging Asian Canadians,” which focused on strengthening community and facilitation of academic research on the topic of Asian Canadians, sparked the inspiration for this publication.
“The present publication includes remarkable and touching stories from various Asian Canadians in different fields. It is the sincere hope of the Cheng Yu Tung East Asian Library that this book will honour and celebrate the past and present contributions of Asian Canadians on their two-century journey. These diverse and inspiring stories will also give a moment to readers to reflect on surging anti-Asian racism and all types of racial discrimination and violence.”
“The ten chapters in this book highlight research and reflections on diversity, diaspora, migration, identity, ethnic communities, and acculturation created by various authors based in Canada and Asia, and illuminate facets of the Asian Canadian experience, often making use of the authors’ own experiences.” From the Introduction, Hana Kim
