Listen to Niha speak with Winnie Man Yin Pang, Director General of the Multiculturalism and Anti-Racism Branch at Department of Canadian Heritage. Winnie talks about her journey from hiding her Chinese name in her youth to making the decision to embrace her full name as an adult. Though she experienced microaggressions within the public service, she shares how she found inspiration (including DM Quan-Watson's Open Letter) to help her embrace her identity and background.
She constantly works toward change and helping those like herself, who at first may have felt like outsiders within the public service, through the Network of Asian Federal Employees.
