No War on China!

Red Braid is organizing to confront anti-Chinese racism in western Canada. While Sinophobia is nothing new to the west coast of Canada and the United States, we see its contemporary iteration – a nativist moral panic around real estate speculation, money laundering, and the fentanyl crisis – as a racist defense of Canadian imperialist hegemony against China’s rising economic and political power.

Our campaign activities have included organizing counter-rallies and panels, and publishing anti-imperialist critiques of Sinophobia. We are working on connecting our research and analysis with working class Chinese communities to help build a grassroots power that can disrupt anti-Chinese hegemony in British Columbia.
