2019年以來，約三十萬港人移民海外，形成一股顯著的離散潮。這些離散個體的故事，既有在新境地奮鬥的勵志篇章，也深藏著離鄉失土的複雜情感。一個關鍵問題隨之浮現：他們是他國國族論述之外的「異鄉人」，還是在創造一種跨越地理疆界的新身份認同？
人文學者駱頴佳博士（著有《情感資本主義》、《邊緣上的香港》等）近年移居加拿大。本次講座，他將結合自身經歷與文化理論，梳理離散的生命狀態，深入探討離散港人所面臨的身份認同困境，以及如何游走於異地與故土的情感連結之間，將困境轉化為新的行動潛能。
座談將以廣東話進行
Since 2019, approximately 300,000 Hongkongers have emigrated overseas, forming a significant wave of diaspora. The stories of these individuals include both inspiring tales of striving in new environments and the complex emotions tied to leaving their homeland. A key question arises: are they “foreigners” excluded from the national narratives of their new countries, or are they forging a new identity that transcends geographical boundaries?
Dr. Lok Wing Kai, a humanities scholar and author of Emotional Capitalism and Hong Kong as Other, has himself relocated to Canada in recent years. In this talk, he will draw on cultural theories and his personal experiences to examine the multifaceted realities of diasporic life. He will delve into the identity struggles faced by Hongkongers abroad and explore how emotional connections between the new and the old can transform challenges into new possibilities for action.
Talk will be conducted in Cantonese
