@taomo_zhou From my (2019) recollection, the Lu Xun Memorial Park was the same. Statutes of male literary figures. Ding Ling was hidden somewhere behind a big ol' plant, well outside the park, in a random street. Found her musing while on a walk.

@CHPPC_IHR @ihr_history @sheffhallamuni @HistoryLabPlus @MichaelHowcroft @KathyDavies93 @Risky_Cities @JUSTHEATproject @StreetLifeYork so excited about this, understandably for a place-based research workshop it's not online. £20 travel bursary might be a little tough from Australia! 🥲 (made in jest ofc!) It sounds amazing, looking forward to hearing all about it from my faraway place in Melbourne.

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.

[Vivian Kong @viviankonghk]

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 :)

“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."

Agreed...
