Since the pandemic, there has been many Anti-Asian racism across the community. In a community survey that was published by the Chinese Canadian National Council in March 2021 funded by the Government of Canada, there were many anonymous stories that were documented as commentaries as follow ups to incidents that has occurred, but were never reported to media. Through the countless statements being quoted in the document, I've chosen three stories and told them through the identification of objects. By allowing these stories to be heard throughout the community, it can benefit everyone as a whole, to keep an eye out for everyone around us.
“Anonymous stories don't get heard often, but they are powerful moments to be aware of. ”
