Victoria marks 100th anniversary of Chinese students' strike against segregation


It was the last student cohort before a year-long Chinese students' school boycott against racial segregation. Hundreds in Victoria attended events on Monday to commemorate a century since Chinese students staged a walkout and a school boycott against segregation. The events were held three days after the Greater Victoria School District apologized for the discriminatory edict. On Friday, the Greater Victoria School District apologized for the policy. "We will work with the Chinese community to ensure this history is not forgotten."
