SUMMARY:Co-Creating Narratives / The Sound of Memory Series (ALLab)
DESCRIPTION:Central to podcasting on human rights is the question of voice. Researchers and producers not only have to make choices regarding which voices to include but also how and to what extent they should engage the protagonists of a story. How or in what ways can listeners contribute and enrich the discussion? What happens during listening clubs? How can the producers perform as facilitators? How is co-creation invited and structured? What is the participants’ agency? In this second session of the series The sound of memory we will discuss radio and podcast projects from South Africa and Latin America that explore multiple interactions and engagements between participants and listeners. \nThis event will be held in English and Spanish\, there will be simultaneous translation. \nFree\, online \nRegister in advance for this meeting \nPlease note that this event will be recorded.

SUMMARY:Going Public in the Covid-19 Era – A Round Table
DESCRIPTION:Photo credit: Michel Turgeon. 1984. AGQ-F0187/S6/SS1/D1. Fonds Association des bonnes gens sourds. Collection of the Archives gaies du Québec \nVictor Samoylenko\n“Walls Have Ears: The Stories of Montreal’s Queer Spaces” \nTaking inspiration from queer mapping projects Queering the Map and Mapping Montreal’s Queer Spaces\, the project Walls have Ears: The Stories of Montreal’s LGBTQ2S+ Spaces seeks to not only put the diverse experiences of LGBTQ2S+ people on a map\, but also to render them audible and combine different types of media. The project presents oral history narrations as well as historical capsules about important queer neighbourhoods. As such\, it highlights spaces that are important for the participants all while giving historical context to Montreal’s LGBTQ2S communities. \nThe exhibit is a pilot project – it is a testament to what is possible to achieve in terms of public history exhibits even in pandemic conditions. Even with limited resources\, the exhibit highlights the sometimes contradictory realities that exist or have existed for LGBTQ2S+ people. As with our own memory\, the project combines multiple times and spaces in a simultaneous manner. Hopefully\, the project will inspire larger and more elaborate projects combining oral history and mapping. As well\, the project is designed to inspire greater collaboration between queer archives across Canada and even worldwide.  Keeping in mind the accessibility of knowledge\, especially given that LGBTQ2S+ topics are optional and often introduced at post-secondary level in the Quebec schools\, Walls have Ears will always remain available online at the site of the Archives gaies du Québec.  \nBiography:  Vic Samoylenko is an Undergraduate in the Public History stream at Concordia\, planning to graduate in Winter 2021. Their research interests include U.S. History post Civil War and LGBTQ2S history. Outside of history\, they are also interested in linguistics and horror studies. In 2018\, Vic published an article about the STI metaphors in the movie It Follows\, in the student section of local horror studies journal Monstrum. In an ideal world\, they would like to create a project that combines the topics of history\, stigma\, linguistics\, and horror. In their free time\, Vic likes to draw and write fiction. \nMarie-Odile Samson\n“Cultural Institutions\, COVID-19\, and the Black Lives Matter Movement” \nThe COVID-19 pandemic has called attention to the interconnections of a wide range of social issues\, such as racial inequalities\, climate change\, and poverty\, as well as the ways in which these relate to the relevance and accessibility of cultural institutions to diverse communities. This project aims to contribute to the emerging discussion regarding the translation of museum exhibits and other programming to the digital realm due to COVID-related social distancing\, as well as broader debates about museums’ responses and responsibilities as pertains to the global wave of protests in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. The goal of this research is to survey and analyze the fundamental issues in museums and the effects that the pandemic has had on seven key institutions in Montreal. Through an analysis of social media\, online content\, events and publications\, I aim to answer the following questions: how well do museums interact and reach various communities in this city? In what ways did the pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement shift the ways in which they do so? I hope this survey of museums’ current responses\, successes\, and failures can serve as a toolkit for stimulating new kinds of partnerships among museums and communities\, and for the reimagining of the museum space as a whole.  \nBiography:  Marie-Odile Samson is currently in her third and final year in the Public History Honours program. She is particularly interested in twentieth century European history\, the study of genocides and events of mass violence\, and the role of memory. She plans on pursuing her studies at the Master’s level either in Museum Studies or Peace and Conflict Studies\, in the hopes of extending her historical knowledge to a broader and social educative purpose\, either through curatorial work or conflict resolution.  \nFree\, online \nRegistration required: https://concordia-ca.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0tc-2uqTojHNy2sopDIiMvVKXimDMdjzev \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

SUMMARY:Listening
DESCRIPTION:In this conversation\, two mapmakers and friends will reflect on how stories figure in their work\, in particular\, stories that are difficult to tell and difficult to hear. \nAnne Kelly Knowles is an historical geographer long engaged in finding methods to answer historical questions and visualize past geographies. She co-founded the Holocaust Geographies Collaborative in 2007\, and currently teaches at the University of Maine. \nMargaret Wickens Pearce is a Citizen Potawatomi Nation tribal member.  She grew up on Seneca territory at Ga’shgöhsagöh (Rochester\, NY) and now lives on Penobscot territory at Catawamkeag (Rockland\, ME). You can find her at studio1to1.net. \nThe Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling (COHDS) in collaboration with the Geomedia lab at Concordia University is organizing a series of conversations around maps and stories. These conversations will involve students\, researchers\, mapmakers\, artists\, and activists working at the intersection between maps and stories\, and will aim to address two broad questions: What are the most pressing methodological\, theoretical\, technological\, ethical and design challenges raised by the relationship between maps and stories? What might be the impacts of these relationships within the social\, cultural and political spheres?
