My grandparents came to Canada because of WWII. At that time our last name was shortened, they assimilated pretty heavily into Anglican Canadian culture, and I think survival and fitting in became more important than holding onto old traditions.

I grew up knowing we were Czech/Slavic, and I have a deep desire to connect with my culture more than just passively.

I think what looking for is human connection from people who still carry some of this culture in their everyday lives.

If anyone else has gone through this, do you feel the same way? Or does anyone have advice on how I can reconnect with my culture outside of passive ways?
