電影放映和座談 Film Screening and Discussion: Earth to Mouth

This workshop hosted by Nazmi Kamal explores the tangible and symbolic significance of za&rsquo;atar on the Palestinian table. More than just a herb blend, za&rsquo;atar carries deep cultural meaning and a strong connection to Palestinian life, memory, and land. During our time together, we will share stories about its history and relevance, followed by a hands-on session where participants will prepare their own za&rsquo;atar mix to take home. All ingredients and utensils will be provided. Doors open at 2:30pm. Event starts at 3pm. About Nazmi KamalNazmi Kamal (Naz) is a Post secondary educator and home cook. He is an advocate for food sustainability, immigrant cuisine and food as a cultural identity. He is a food researcher, a home cook, a farm volunteer, and a responsible consumer. His approach to Palestinian cuisine goes beyond recipes to include generational knowledge as he utilizes multi-sensory experiences and visual aid to transport his audiences through history, time and place. --- Tea and light refreshments will be provided complimentary of 客家 HAKKA HOUSE. ---Accessibility Information<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;" value="1">Masking:&nbsp;This is a mask-encouraged and scent-free event for the health and safety of all attendees, considering the size and layout of our small, close-knit, indoor space.

Za’atar & Belonging: Food, Culture and Palestinian Memory

This talk by Dr. Yao Xiao shares 《大漢公報》&nbsp;Tai Hon Kong Bo, aka The Chinese Times, the longest running Chinese community newspaper in Canada (1910 to 1992). &nbsp;It leads us into the forgotten emotional and ordinary dimensions of Chinese Canadian migration journeys. Through farewell letters, everyday culture, grassroots actions, and resistance movements, we glimpse fragments that may seem small yet rich with meaning. These stories not only record ordinary people&rsquo;s histories, but also shed light on the wandering, courage, defiance, and dignity carried by those who lived at the margins. Presentation in English.&nbsp; About Dr. Yao XiaoDr. Yao Xiao is an interdisciplinary scholar of culture, migration, minority, and social justice education. Their research explores alternative and minoritized identities, representations, ways of life, and ways of being, with a focus on the complexity of Chinese-ness, Asian-ness, and Asia/Africa interface. Their collaborative research appears in international journals, including Cultural Studies, Critical Arts, Postcolonial Directions in Education, and Diaspora, Indigenous, and&nbsp;Minority Education. They teach courses in social justice, ethics, international politics, critical racial theories, contemporary Asia, and diversity education, integrating research insights and lived experiences into their curriculum and pedagogy. A non-binary Cantonese-Hakka first-generation immigrant settler of colour on Turtle Island, Dr. Xiao has spent over a decade accompanying/walking/working with grassroots seniors and youth in and around Vancouver Chinatown, centring intergenerational memories, non-Anglophone-dominant practices, and forms of care that are non-extractive, non-saviour, and grounded in reciprocal learning. --- Tea and light refreshments will be provided complimentary of 客家 HAKKA HOUSE. ---Accessibility Information<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;" value="1">Masking:&nbsp;This is a mask-encouraged and scent-free event for the health and safety of all attendees, considering the size and layout of our small, close-knit, indoor space.

Media Training Workshop II: How to Deliver Your Message To Media

有清一代 (1644-1911年) ，漢族農民不斷從中國本部遷往內蒙古：他們最初是在官方的默許下零星地進入該地區，隨後則在政府的大力支持下，漸漸發展為大規模的移民潮。大量漢族移民持續不斷的湧入，對中國和內蒙古地區都產生了出乎意料卻又深遠的影響。本講座將探討這一歷史現象及其影響。此次分享以粵語為主，由余祺爗博士主講。 余祺爗博士，現任加拿大西蒙菲莎大學化學系副研究員。2017年，他於倫敦大學亞非學院獲授歷史學哲學博士學位。 余博士有多年的高校教學與研究經歷: 包括曾任職廣州中山大學歷史系特聘副研究員; 並曾任教於西蒙菲莎大學、西三一大學、香港大學等高校。余博士已發表的主要研究成果包括：&ldquo;Wither Mongolian Consciousness? Or, Ethnic Politics in Mongolia in the Early 20th Century&rdquo; (2017) 及 &ldquo;Han Migrant Farmers in Qing Inner Mongolia (2019)。 隨喜付費。建議帶口罩參與。我們亦會在現場提供口罩。 Throughout the Qing period (1644-1911 AD), Han farmers migrated continuously from China proper into Inner Mongolia, first as trickles with tacit official permissions and then grew to torrents with strong official backing. This continuous influx of Han Chinese immigrants has had unanticipated but far-reaching impacts on China and Inner Mongolia. This talk will examine this historical phenomenon and its implications. Conducted primarily in Cantonese by Dr. Cyrus Yee. Dr. Cyrus Yee is a Research Associate at Simon Fraser University, and holds a Ph.D. in History from the SOAS University of London (2017). He has worked as an Associate Research Fellow in the Department of History at Sun Yat-sen University, and lectured at Simon Fraser University, Trinity Western University, and The University of Hong Kong. Dr. Yee&#39;s key publications include &ldquo;Whither Mongolian Consciousness? Or, Ethnic Politics in Mongolia in the Early 20th Century&rdquo; (2017) and &ldquo;Han Migrant Farmers in Qing Inner Mongolia&rdquo; (2019). Pay what you can. All proceeds goes to speaker honouraria, refreshments, and operational costs of 客家 HAKKA HOUSE, an independent, self-funded, volunteer-run community space. This is a mask encouraged event for the health and safety of all attendees, considering the size and layout of our small, close-knit, indoor space.

Layered with imagery shot in Taiwan, it evokes the not-so-old custom of giving away daughters, &ldquo;adopted&rdquo; by other families and often used for hard house and farm work. It is dedicated to women and girls fighting for fairness and justice. Pay what you can.

IBPOC Activism Talks: Youth activism from the perspective of a Chinese-Nikkei high schooler - Presented 落合貝克非凡 by Beck Feifan Ochiai

Join us for lessons from witnessing the First Intifada to leading the Apartheid Free movement presented by جيدا مصلح Jeeda Musleh, a Palestinian organizer, movement leader, and musician. جيدا مصلح Jeeda Musleh is a Palestinian organizer and campaign lead for Apartheid Free Communities in BC. Originally from Bethlehem, she remembers witnessing the First Intifada as a child. Most importantly, her love for her homeland and culture, and her strong sense of identity as a Palestinian, continue to drive her advocacy for Palestine today. Jeeda currently organizes with Apartheid Free Communities, where she leads work across BC and Canada. In this role, she has helped sign up hundreds of organizations, businesses, communities, and municipalities to declare their solidarity and make tangible commitments toward an apartheid-free future in Palestine. She was also one of the key organizers of the Freedom School that accompanied Rehab Nazzal&rsquo;s Driving in Palestine exhibit in 2025. Through her love of poetry and djembe drumming, Jeeda created and continues to create spaces for people to join the Palestinian movement, while also fostering care and connection within it.&nbsp; Often the person leading rhythms at protests with her djembe, Jeeda is also the founder and lead of Djembes for a Liberated Palestine, where she brings together a multicultural group of drummers each month. For her, drumming is both a form of resistance and a form of healing. Hear from Jeeda about her experience as a grassroots organizer, and what inspires her to keep organizing, how she approaches campaigning, and why she believes in organizing for the long term. Conducted primarily in English. Pay what you can. All proceeds goes to speaker honouraria, refreshments, and operational costs of 客家 HAKKA HOUSE, an independent, self-funded, volunteer-run community space.

IBPOC Activism Talks:  Community organizer and elder 藍何梅嘉 Cynthia Mei Jia Lam, C.M.

Join us for a Hakka documentary film screening of《蛺蝶女氏》Clan of the Painted Lady&nbsp;(2025) followed by a discussion with director, 丘美玲 Jennifer Chiu, at 客家 HAKKA HOUSE. The film will have English subtitles. The discussion will be conducted in Hakka, Cantonese, Mandarin, and English. About 《蛺蝶女氏》Clan of the Painted Lady (2025)A Hakka-Canadian filmmaker traces her family&rsquo;s past in Kolkata, India and confronts the impact of migration on identity and family, exploring the space between generations where culture hangs in the balance. The Hakka are descendants of northern Chinese nomads whose origins are unknown and whose name means &lsquo;guest family&rsquo;. Over centuries of war and upheaval, they migrated south through China and eventually across the globe. Clan of the Painted Lady follows Jennifer&#39;s personal journey from China to Canada to India, to discover why we move and how we keep our heritage alive whilst adapting to new places. With an ensemble of Hakka voices from around the world, the film explores how culture is transmitted from one generation to another, and the challenge of defining identity within a diaspora.&nbsp; Through Jennifer&#39;s own story, she explore the weight of parent-child separation which migration often entails, and the loss and disconnection that must somehow be healed.&nbsp; As we begin new lives in new places, what do we hold on to&mdash;and what must we let go of? Will we be able to remember who we are as we move through the world? About the Film Maker, 丘美玲 Jennifer ChiuJennifer Chiu is an award-winning writer, director, producer and documentary researcher living in Vancouver, British Columbia. Her films have screened at festivals around the world including DOK Leipzig, Edinburgh Film Festival, Festival du Nouveau Cin&eacute;ma, Mill Valley Film Festival, and the Vancouver International Film Festival.
