加拿大的新硬幣慶祝黑人歷史月，並尊重霍根的小巷，這是一個歷史悠久的溫哥華社區

加拿大皇家造幣廠透露了其2025年的精美銀色紀念黑人歷史收藏家硬幣，慶祝霍根（Hogan）的巷子（Hogan's Alley），這是一個在溫哥華的Strathcona社區繁榮的黑人社區，直到1970年代初。

The Royal Canadian Mint has unveiled a new collector coin to commemorate Black History Month and celebrate Hogan’s Alley, a historic Black community in Vancouver.

加拿大皇家造幣廠已經揭開了新的收藏家硬幣，以紀念黑人歷史月，並慶祝霍根（Hogan）的小巷（Hogan's Alley），這是溫哥華歷史悠久的黑人社區。

The 2025 Fine Silver Commemorating Black History coin honours the community, which thrived in Strathcona until the early 1970s, when it was demolished to make way for a road viaduct project.

紀念黑色歷史硬幣的2025年精美的銀色紀念社區，該社區在Strathcona蓬勃發展，直到1970年代初，它被拆除以為道路高架橋項目騰出空間。

The area was home to porters working for the nearby Great Northern Railway station, families, and entrepreneurs who ran small businesses, entertainment venues, and some of Vancouver’s favourite restaurants.

該地區是在附近的大北部火車站，家庭和企業家工作的搬運工的所在地，他們經營著小型企業，娛樂場所以及溫哥華最喜歡的餐廳。

Disadvantaged by inequitable city planning policies, Hogan’s Alley was eventually demolished to make way for a road viaduct project.

霍根（Hogan）的小巷最終被拆除，為道路高架橋項目騰出了空間，因此受到不平等城市規劃政策的不利地位。

A new generation is reviving the lost community. Its spirit is depicted in the Mint’s new coin.

新一代正在恢復失落的社區。它的精神在薄荷的新硬幣中被描繪。

“As we work towards recreating a hub for Black communities in Metro Vancouver, it is important to learn about the historic Black presence and contributions that shaped our city,” said Djaka Blais, executive director of Hogan’s Alley Society.

霍根巷（Hogan's Alley Society）執行董事Djaka Blais說：“當我們努力為大溫哥華大都會的黑人社區重建樞紐時，了解塑造我們城市的歷史性黑人存在和貢獻非常重要。”

“This commemorative coin is a meaningful acknowledgment of the history and spirit of Hogan’s Alley, and we hope it inspires ongoing efforts to honour and restore the legacy of this vibrant community.”

“這種紀念硬幣是對霍根小巷歷史和精神的有意義的認可，我們希望它能激發持續的努力來紀念和恢復這個充滿活力的社區的遺產。”

The coin’s reverse was designed by artist Kwame Delfish. Engraved in the centre is British Columbia’s provincial flower, the Pacific Dogwood. It’s surrounded by symbolic figures like a cook at one of the famed women-owned chicken house restaurants, a Black railway sleeping car porter, a choir representing the African Methodist Episcopal Fountain Chapel, two different types of dancers, as well as a pianist, saxophonist and singer, representing the incredible talent of the community’s nightclubs and speakeasies.

硬幣的反向是由藝術家夸梅·德爾費甚（Kwame Delfish）設計的。中心雕刻的是不列顛哥倫比亞省的省花太平洋山狗木。它被象徵性的人物包圍，例如廚師在其中一家著名的婦女擁有的雞舍餐廳，黑色鐵路睡眠車搬運工，代表非洲衛理公會的主教泉水教堂的合唱團，兩種不同類型和歌手，代表了社區夜總會和演講的不可思議的才華。

The obverse features a maple leaf pattern and the effigy of King Charles III by Canadian artist Steven Rosati.

正面的特色是加拿大藝術家史蒂芬·羅薩蒂（Steven Rosati）的楓葉圖案和查爾斯三世國王的雕像。

“This coin pays homage to the vibrant community of Hogan’s Alley. While housing discrimination played an integral role in the settlement of Black Canadians as primary residents of this neighbourhood, it only tells part of the story. As an Afro-Caribbean designer, it was necessary for me to ground this piece in the rich culture and entrepreneurial prowess of this tenacious community,” explained Delfish.

“這枚硬幣向霍根巷充滿活力的社區致敬。儘管住房歧視在黑人加拿大人作為該社區的主要居民的定居中起著不可或缺的作用，但它僅講述了故事的一部分。作為一名非洲加勒比海設計師，我有必要在這個頑強的社區的豐富文化和創業能力中紮根這一作品。”
