This act forcibly severed their legal recognition as Indigenous. In Reconciling, Larry reflects on his life and on reconciliation as an ongoing, unfinished process shaped by colonial history, migration, and resilience. Told through a series of conversations with writer Scott Steedman, the book traces pivotal sites including the Musqueam reserve, Chinatown, the Mission Residential School site, the Vancouver docks, and the University of British Columbia, weaving together stories of Indigenous traditions and Chinese migration.This program will also include select excerpts from the documentary on Larry Grant's family, All Our Father’s Relations (2016), produced by Sarah Ling, the moderator, which explores the lesser-known history between the Musqueam Nation and early Chinese migrants. This year marks the 10th anniversary of this award-winning film, which has been screened nationally and globally. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/vancouver/writing-through-time-with-larry-grant-scott-steedman-and-sarah-ling/100001984584257939 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Vancouver - Museum & Archives - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 6.73, max: 6.73, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Vancouver - **state**: BC - **country**: Canada - **location**: Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Vancouver - Museum & Archives - **lat**: 49.2797622 - **long**: -123.102553 - **full address**: Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Vancouver - Museum & Archives, 555 Columbia Street, Vancouver, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Writing Through Time with Larry Grant, Scott Steedman, and Sarah Ling - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/f20966c8d578f13b5e0885eed5129cfc93b1d416b213bec7141f9128a9f00c89-rimg-w1200-h600-dcb71c1c-gmir.jpg?v=1777708169 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Writing Through Time with Larry Grant, Scott Steedman, and Sarah Ling being held? - **A:** Writing Through Time with Larry Grant, Scott Steedman, and Sarah Ling takes place on Sat, 27 Jun, 2026 at 01:00 pm to Sat, 27 Jun, 2026 at 02:00 pm at Chinese Cultural Centre of Greater Vancouver - Museum & Archives, 555 Columbia Street, Vancouver, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing Writing Through Time with Larry Grant, Scott Steedman, and Sarah Ling? - **A:** Writing Through Time with Larry Grant, Scott Steedman, and Sarah Ling is organized by literASIAN Festival. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
