Emby Park shares her experiences growing up in Quebec after immigrating from South Korea at the age of three. Emby reflects on the cultural complexity of raising a Korean-Tunisian child in Quebec. She talks about Johakim&#8217;s strong connection to his father&#8217;s Tunisian Muslim culture and his lack of connection to his Korean side of the family. Hong Kong dad Richmond Lam speaks about the pressures his and his partner&#8217;s respective families experience in multicultural parenthood. Both want to pass on their heritage to their child, C\u00e9leste Tian Quenneville-Lam, but have concerns about how assimilation and racism might affect C\u00e9leste&#8217;s upbringing. Bri Kang, a Korean-Greek adult, suggests that biracial children should have opportunities to connect with their cultures outside of the family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/therover.ca\/what-its-like-to-raise-biracial-asian-kids-in-quebec\/\">This article<\/a> is published in The Rover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-justify wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We discussed racism, pressures to assimilate, and connections to culture with two Asian parents and an Asian biracial adult.
