Scope and Content
Item consists of part two in a two part video series "A Taste of History" created by Debbie Liang and Joty Gill, University of British Columbia alumni and graduates from the Asian Canadian & Asian Migration Studies program (ACAM). Part two is titled "A Pig's Tale". The film highlights the history of Chinese pig farms also known as "Piggeries" in Burnaby. The film tells the story of how many of these farms were established by Chinese immigrants along Douglas Road (now Canada Way) between the 1890s and 1920s; the importance of the pig in the Chinese Culture as well as a way for Chinese immigrants to make a living and the racism and discriminatory bylaws that the Chinese pig farmers suffered that finally led to the closure of many of these farms. Content references three documented piggery ranches along Douglas Road: Ah Sam; Young Chung and Hop Hin Yen. The films are supported with voice over in english, subtitles, animation along with historical photographs. One version of the film is supported with subtitles in English while two other versions of the film are supported with subtitles in Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese.
History
In 2020, due to the restrictions of COVID-19, University of British Columbia student interns with the Burnaby Village Museum Chinese Canadian History in Burnaby project were asked to create virtual experiences to reimagine Burnaby Village Museum's historical Chinese Canadian programming in remote online spaces. Debbie Liang and Joty Gill (UBC alumni and graduates of Dr. Henry Yu's 2019 summer ACAM 390A Global Seminar to Aisa) returned to work with Burnaby Village Museum to create two short films showcasing the history of Chinese Canadian Chop Suey restaurants and piggeries in Burnaby.

Description
Dress, c.1930s. Light blue cotton with rayon rick-rack trim and celluloid buttons. The button-front bodice is fitted with darts, and the skirt is knee length. The close collar is edged with purple rayon rick-rack ribbon. The centre front opens with three white octagonal celluloid buttons, and it is shaped with darts: two on each side panel front and back, and one on each shoulder front and back. There is also an inverted box pleat inserted into the centre back, closed at its top and bottom, for ease. At the end of each short sleeve there is the same purple trim as on the collar. The centre front opening continues through the natural waistline, with two hidden circular white celluloid buttons. There is a front and back slightly flared panel to the skirt, plus two godets on either side of each side seam. The trim and the rest of the garment is machine sewn, with flat felled seams.
