Why Colors of Hong Kong?
Living in Hong Kong, we all go through a life full of colors beyond the simple black and white.
From the busy rushing lifestyle to the crowded shoebox like living space we have to deal with.
However, one thing is clear—we are not alone.
In this tiny cosmopolitan, living inside these small “container” like apartments we call home, there are so many beautiful people going through a journey and struggle of their own. With each journey, each struggle, and each experience, there come an uncountable number of stories attached; tales that have never been heard before.
Our goal is to let the world know that these unheard voices exist and to let you learn and take something away from these stories and experiences.
Come tell us your story, what did this city do to make you the person you are today?
Our Goal
Colors of Hong Kong is a project inspired to share the uncountable unheard stories of people living in Hong Kong in the form of narrative writing. We are an entirely student-funded, non-profit project that first began in March of 2019. One of our key goals is to use the power of social media to bring together people of different backgrounds and create a community that can break barriers and disparities among the people of Hong Kong.
And that is exactly what makes us special. We believe that representation is vital, and it's questionably lacking in this busy little city of ours. But we together can change that.
There is nothing more powerful than an authentic story. Stories carry significant value in the lives of the tellers and the listeners. Stories bring people together, lead to change and substantially impact lives. To us, storytelling is an impactful means of making a positive difference in the lives of individuals and society as a whole. Here at Colors of Hong Kong, every story is a color and our aim is to let the world know yours.
