Finding Asian and Queer Joy

Joy comes in many forms. It can come quickly or slowly. Other times, it hides and you just have to look for it. Meet Hostion. Now a citizen to Canada, his journey to get here was simple but filled with complexities as he navigated a new community, a new culture and a new country. As an Asian, Queer man, he shares his story of what brought him here, how he found joy being himself and how we, as immigrants and non-immigrants alike, can advocate for, respect and honour the humanity found when a person is simply a person. Enjoy this honest listen, filled with obstacles and triumphs and be encouraged: what you do today, can have an incredible impact on generations to come.For sources to this episode, please visit https://www.canadiansalad.ca/episodes.Let us know what you think of this episode!
