In the wake of the ongoing and recent rise in anti-Asian racism and violence, including the Atlanta shooting which occurred on March 16 and recent incidents in our own communities, UBC Botanical Garden stands in solidarity with the Asian communities at UBC and across the continent.
During the pandemic, 83% of people reporting racist incidents in Canada were of East Asian ethnicity. Read UBC Department of Asian Studies’ statement on anti-Asian racism and to find upcoming webinars, resources, and more.
