WN: This video speaks for itself . . .

Description:

Melissa Grelo and Elaine Lui, the co-hosts of (Canadian Television Network) CTV’s The Social, created a video about Anti-Asian racism during COVID, in support of the work by the Chinese Canadian National Council for Social Justice.

This video, which features many different Asian Canadians from all walks of life (including Yuta Watanabe from the Raptors and Canadian figure skating champion Patrick Chan), is based on a powerful poem written by Chinese Canadian poet, Christopher Tse, who is now based in the Yukon and among other things, working with Indigenous youths.
