Kimberley Wong

Kimberley is a queer Chinese activist growing, studying, and creating on unceded Coast Salish territory. She is focusing her studies on understanding the lives and migration patterns of her matriarchal ancestors from Hoisan County. As a fifth-generation Chinese-Canadian, whose ancestors were Canadian Pacific Railway workers, and subject to the Chinese Head Tax, she is interested in how urban geography and feminist theory intersect with historic and contemporary experiences of racism, sexism, and homophobia. Kimberley’s experiential knowledge fuels her desire to inspire other diasporic Chinese youth to explore the intersection of identity and discrimination.
