摘要

摘要这种民族志叙事展示了加拿大马赛克中种族化身份的归属话语是如何受到历史、文化政治和随之而来的社会斗争的限制的。本文运用亚洲批判理论、位置政治和文化资本的交叉框架,展示了归属意识形态是如何通过文化和制度社会化过程来维持的,这些社会化过程维持了使一些社会群体相对于其他社会群体享有特权的等级制度,并在加拿大公民中产生种族化差异和不平等。作为在加拿大温哥华出生和长大的第二代华裔,我在以白人为主的英语环境中的生活经历表明,我作为“模范少数族裔”或“荣誉白人”的地位一直不稳定。博尼拉·席尔瓦警告我们,在经济、种族或民族紧张时期,“荣誉白人”的地位可能会被撤销。在2020冠状病毒大流行期间,反亚裔仇恨事件急剧增加,使不列颠哥伦比亚省温哥华市获得了“北美反亚裔仇恨之都”的称号,这就是一个例子,说明这些种族化的身份是如何自相矛盾的,否认了社会不平等的存在。批判性研究必须质疑,在“多元文化”的加拿大,继续使用错误汇总的数据,使不同的人口群体变得重要,并使对加拿大公民的有害扭曲永久化,是如何助长而不是摧毁种族话语的。

Paradoxes of the Canadian mosaic: “being, feeling and doing Canadian”
Abstract This autoethnographic narrative shows how discourses of belonging for racialized identities within Canada’s mosaic are bounded by history, cultural politics, and attendant social struggles. Using an intersectional framework of Asian Critical theory, politics of location, and cultural capital, this paper demonstrates how ideologies of belonging are sustained by processes of cultural and institutional socialization which maintain hierarchies privileging some social groups over others and produce racial/ized difference and inequities within Canadian citizenry. As a second-generation of Chinese ancestry born and raised in Vancouver, Canada, my lived experiences in a predominantly white English-speaking environment illustrate how my status as “model minority” or “honorary white” has been a precarious position. Bonilla-Silva warns us that “honorary white” positioning may be revoked in times of economic, racial or ethnic tension. Dramatic increases in anti-Asian hate incidents during the 2020 Coronavirus pandemic—earning Vancouver, BC, the title of the “anti-Asian hate capital of North America”—is an example of how these racialized statuses are paradoxical designations which deny the existence of social inequities. Critical research must interrogate how the continued use of mis-aggregated data that essentializes diverse population groups and perpetuates harmful distortions of Canadian citizenry contribute to, rather than dismantle, discourses of race in “multicultural” Canada.
