We're still reminiscing about the 2-day Conference held last week in Hong Kong. The discussions, presentations, and networking were insightful and engaging. We're also grateful to have Evelyn Welch, VC of UoB, chair a keynote session for us.

I keep accidentally ending up in the right place at the right time, totally did not plan on being in Hong Kong for @viviankonghk's presentation but very glad I was able to be there in person. On my immediate to purchase list.
Really excited that my book with @cambUP_History @CambridgeUP, Multiracial Britishness: Global Networks in Hong Kong, 1910-45, will be out this Thursday on 2 November! Here's a glimpse of the contents page :) Order here: cambridge.org/gb/universityp… #hongkonghistory #hkhist #香港史

“Racism is weak people bullying people who they think are weaker than them, so they can feel better. Make sure that you are safe and fight back." Peacefully exposing people to their own behaviour by saying "I saw what you did. Now everyone else will too." scmp.com/news/people-culture…
