Ms. Que Banh<p>"Chinese and Indigenous communities have shared histories. We faced hardships together while mining for gold in the British Columbia gold rush and experiencing the rugged Canadian weather and terrain.</p><p>There are many graves on First Nations territories when Chinese people died from the flu and from the building of the railway, crushed by landslides, collapsing tunnels and premature blastings (Mittelstedt, 2014). The First Nations communities took in the Chinese railroad workers and care for their grave sites to this day (Mittelstedt, 2014). We enjoyed economic success and partnerships that were respectful and mutually beneficial (Ma, 2012). Chinese people leased lands (on First Nations) to farm and then hired Indigenous people to help farm the land (Mathur et al., 2011, p. 74). The Chinese built elaborate gold-mining operations among First Nations communities and perhaps most importantly our communities intermingled and there were many marriages between Chinese men and Indigenous women. In 1891, 98% of Chinese people in Canada lived in British Columbia (Barman, 2013, p. 1), which explains why there are such intimate ties between Chinese people and our First Nations communities in British Columbia. Unsurprisingly, one in six Chinese men created a family with a local Indigenous woman (Barman, 2013, p. 1)."</p><p><a href="https://fccrwc.com/chinese-and-indigenous-history-relationships-canada/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fccrwc.com/chinese-and-indigen</span><span class="invisible">ous-history-relationships-canada/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/BCHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BCHistory</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/CanadianHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CanadianHistory</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ChineseCanadians" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChineseCanadians</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Intercultural" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Intercultural</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/POC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>POC</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Chinese" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chinese</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Indigenous</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Coexistence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Coexistence</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MutualSupport" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MutualSupport</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/RaceRelations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RaceRelations</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/DecolonizationReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DecolonizationReading</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Educational" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Educational</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/FirstNations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FirstNations</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ChineseCanadianHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChineseCanadianHistory</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/MixedMarriages" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MixedMarriages</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/HistoryOfCanada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HistoryOfCanada</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AntiRacismEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiRacismEducation</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/AsianMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AsianMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/LearnHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LearnHistory</span></a></p>
