The month of May is Asian Heritage Month which reminds us to honour and celebrate the contributions of Asian Canadians all over the country. It’s no secret that things have been particularly hard for Asians this past year, making this year’s AHM all that more important. One way that Asians have been expressing themselves and their creativity is through the TikTok platform. Asian TikTokers have created a community on the platform through dance, music, cuisine, business and everything in between.
