Being Hakka Chinese ft. Karlie Wu

In today's episode I was joined by my pal, friend, Karlie Wu. We talk about Karlie’s connection with being Hakka, our new grassroots movement, besea.n and how we’ve felt during lockdown, scary spirit ghost stories, how our parents assign themselves random Western names, how Karlie uses her art to preserver her Hakka heritage, Hakka food and I attempt to explain some Hakka history, did you know that a lot of Jamaican Chinese people are Hakka?! I learnt so much in my research, and about my own identity of being Hakka Chinese! Hope you enjoy!
