September 7th 2007 marked the 100th anniversary of the anti-Asian race riots in downtown Vancouver. On that day a white supremacist crowd marched to Vancouver city hall to demand a White Canada. They then went on to attack the Chinese community in Chinatown and the Japanese settlement around Powell Street.
Gallery Gachet and Anniversaries of Change remind us of this half forgotton chapter of Vancouver's history.
