Guangzhou to Barbados: Growing up Chinese in the Caribbean

China in the Americas

Mar 24 2021 • 28 mins

Barbados is 91% Black. East Asians account for just around 0.1% of the country's population.

In this episode I chat with my friend Lin Jiang (Jack) about his experience growing up and living in the Caribbean. He moved to Barbados when we was 7 years old and immediately had to deal with questions of identity and issues of racism that persist until today.
