Let's Talk - Video Discussion Guide - A history of silence: spoken word on model minority
The Video Campaign Project has been created to promote a greater awareness and understanding of anti-Asian racism to impact systemic change in public institutions, support community agencies, and influence public perceptions. The videos and discussions apply to everyone and provide Canadians the historical and contemporary underpinnings of hate, racism and discrimination directed at Asian-Canadians.
This video resource guide provides guidance for facilitation and discussion.
