CACH-ALL annual reunion for adoptive families
We are delighted to welcome debut non-fiction author Daisy J. Hung to discuss her new book, I am Not a Tourist: Conversations on Being British Chinese, published by HQ/HarperCollins in March 2025.
From politics to popular culture, British Chinese experiences have had little visibility, remaining largely unseen and rarely discussed. I Am Not a Tourist is a fierce and moving exploration of what it means to be British Chinese today, sharing diverse intersectional stories beyond narrow constructions of ‘forever foreigners’. It is both a surfacing of struggles, bearing witness to longstanding xenophobia and racism, and a celebration of culture and heritage, recognising resistance efforts and movement towards a collective East and Southeast Asian identity grounded in anti-oppression and empathy. Daisy draws on personal stories, extensive interviews, and research to excavate the intricacies of identity, reveal forgotten histories, and explore the nuances of representation in a society that doesn’t always ‘see’ you.
Join the conversation, with a book talk and Q&A, followed by a book signing with Daisy.
