In the summer of 2021, we had been meeting virtually for many months to organize the first Long Time No See Photo Project. To take this photo, for some, it was the first time to “gihn mehn,” to meet face-to-face.

The Long Time No See Collective acknowledges the original caretakers of the land where Chinatown is today. We are on the ancestral and traditional territories of the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishinaabe, the Haudenosaunee, and the Huron-Wendat.
好久不见，感谢今天唐人街所在土地的最初看护者。我们位于 Mississaugas of the Credit (密西沙加祈德河)、Anishinaabe (阿尼西纳贝)、Haudenosaunee 和 Huron-Wendat (休伦-温达特) 的祖先和传统领土上。
Our work seeks to bring together different generations and backgrounds of Chinese Canadian artists and educators. We honour our ancestors by sharing and teaching the stories of how Chinatown came to be, the histories that have been erased, and, our responsibilities to act in solidarity with Indigenous peoples. Walking along Spadina Avenue today, we are grateful to the Indigenous nations who, for thousands of years, have come to “gihn mehn,” exchange stories, goods and knowledge.
