We are excited to host our next storytelling series; Laugh, Cry, Cringe with Bernice Hune about Pacific Immigrants’ Stories – Undoing the Silence. Through performance and storytelling, Bernice will share journeys experienced by Cantonese elders to undo the silence and create new stories placing non-European settlers in shared Canadian history. We encourage and invite all U of T students, staff, faculty, and librarians to attend.
The purpose of Laugh, Cry, Cringe: Storytelling Series is to create braver spaces to engage in conversations that explore personal stories and cultural narratives, while unmasking misconceptions about various groups/communities/people.
