| dc.description.abstract | Victoria’s Chinatown was once a lived-in ethnic community, whose residents faced discriminatory practices that led them to establish and develop a unique, subcultural physical space. Chinatowns are physical manifestations of racialized discrimination, and their existence therefore is in itself evidence of said discrimination. As time has gone on, Chinatown has transitioned away from being a lived space to being a symbolic one. My research seeks to explore that transition by reframing it through four stages of death that represent the multitude of states that Chinatown has embodied. I seek to examine how culture is upheld in the face of changes in both physical space and populous, as well as the importance of continued collective memory for the Chinese Canadians who have interacted with this space. | |
