Hakka House at Chinatown Plaza

Dr. Yao Xiao, EDST instructor, with Chinatown community friends, has created a small community space called Hakka House at Chinatown Plaza (103A-180 Keefer Street, Vancouver). The website is: www.hakkahouse.org . Their instagram is: ChinatownHakkaHouse .  Hakka House is a base for cultural grounding and community work, dedicated to independent voices and collaborative organizing.  Chinatown and Downtown Eastside neighbourhoods are facing historical and ongoing colonialism, racism, gentrification, cultural erasure, gender-based oppression, intense policing, among many other struggles.
