SUMMARY:Stories Beyond Borders: Mapping the Imaginative Spaces  of Movement and Migration
DESCRIPTION:with Stéphane Martelly\, Maricia Fischer-Souan\, and Kelly Norah Drukker \nEnglish \nIn this panel presentation and discussion\, writers and scholars working within the disciplines of oral history\, sociology\, and creative writing share different approaches to “mapping” stories of movement and migration—from intimate ethnographies to those told within broader communities. What role does place play in the interview process\, and how does it shape the stories that emerge from oral history interviews? What strategies can we use\, informed by a range of disciplinary practices\, to capture some of the felt dislocations—the distances between “here” and “there”— that emerge from our research? Through conversation and sharing works in progress\, this panel explores how places can be (re)imagined through different modes of writing\, and how various forms of mapping can serve as useful tools to convey the stories that emerge from places\, both present and past.  \n\nChair: Stéphane Martelly\, Université de Sherbrooke (TBC) \nWriter\, painter and scholar\, Stéphane Martelly was born in Port-au-Prince and now lives in Montreal. Through a profoundly transdisciplinary approach\, she confronts theory\, critical reflection and art in her work. She has published poetry [La Boîte noire suivi de Départs 2004)] and children’s tales [Couleur de rue\, 1999 and L’Homme aux cheveux de fougère\, 2002]. Her pictorial works are showcased in the digital art book Folie passée à la chaux vive (Madness spent in quicklime) (Publie.net\, 2010). \nHer scholarly work notably includes working in the Montreal-based Life Stories Of Montrealers Displaced By War\, Genocide And Other Human Rights Violations as a researcher and coordinator. She also wrote a monograph on Haitian poet Magloire-Saint-Aude (Le Sujet opaque\, 2001) and several articles on Caribbean literature. Her latest essay in research-creation is: Les Jeux du dissemblable. Folie\, marge et féminin en littérature haïtienne contemporaine\, Nota Bene\, 2016. Her recent publications are La Maman qui s’absentait (Vents d’Ailleurs\, 2011)\, Inventaires (Triptyque\, 2016) and L’enfant gazelle (Remue-Ménage\, 2018). \nhttps://www.usherbrooke.ca/dall/departement/personnel/personnel-enseignant/stephane-martelly \nMaricia Fischer-Souan is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Global Postdoctoral Fellow at the Centre for Research on Social Inequalities at Sciences Po Paris (October 2021-2024) and affiliated with the Centre d’études et de recherches internationales (CÉRIUM)\, Université de Montréal. Her postdoctoral research project\, “IM.MAGINE – Mapping Immigrant Imaginations: Comparing North Africans in Montréal and Marseille”\, examines representations of and relationships with space and place in migrant identity construction. She has a PhD in Social Sciences (2020) from the Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. Her dissertation “Becoming a Migrant in Europe: Accounts of Motive\, Meaning\, and Identity Formation” studied various processes of mobile subjectivity among both postcolonial migrants and European Union ‘free-movers’ in Berlin\, London\, Paris\, and Madrid. As part of her current IM.MAGINE project\, she is exploring lyrical and imaginative approaches to ‘everyday’ migration narratives\, both methodologically and thematically and is working on a book manuscript that charts the use of figurative language in both individual and public migration narratives. Her most recent research article\, “Belonging to the Nation\, Belonging to Europe? Varieties of Particularism and Universalism in Migrant Identity Negotiation” is published in the Journal of Contemporary European Studies (2024). \nKelly Norah Drukker is a poet\, nonfiction writer\, and doctoral candidate in Concordia University’s Humanities PhD program. As a research-creation scholar working at the intersection of creative writing\, oral history\, space and place\, and memory studies\, she has presented her projects at Concordia University\, Rutgers University\, the University of Ulster\, the University of Jyväskylä\, and Sydney Catholic University. Kelly’s first collection of poems\, Small Fires\, was awarded the A.M. Klein Prize for Poetry and the Concordia University First Book Prize\, and was a finalist for the Grand prix du livre de Montréal (2016). Her poetry and creative nonfiction have appeared in journals in Canada\, Ireland\, New Zealand\, and Australia. Petits feux\, the French-language translation of Small Fires by Lori Saint-Martin and Paul Gagné\, was published by Le lézard amoureux in 2018. Kelly’s doctoral Project\, “Naming the Traces: (Re)Constructing an Irish-Canadian Family Narrative of Emigration\, Place-Making\, and Return\,” has received the support of a Faculty of Arts and Science Graduate Fellowship\, a Joseph-Armand Bombardier CGS Doctoral Scholarship\, a United Irish Societies of Montreal Scholarship\, a School of Canadian Irish Studies Bursary\, and a Fr. Thomas Daniel McEntee Graduate Scholarship. She continues to live\, write\, and teach creative writing workshops in Montreal. \n  \nREGISTRATION \nPlease note that all of our events are free and open to all\, but you need to register!

SUMMARY:Voices of the Immigrant Workers’ Centre
DESCRIPTION:with Lauren Laframboise and Stefan Christoff  \nIn 2007\, Montreal-based garment manufacturer Lamour prepared to shutter its Canadian production activities\, gradually laying off nearly 500 of its employees to circumvent labour legislation that would force the company to pay collective layoff benefits. Over 2007 and 2008\, Lamour workers and community organizers at the Immigrant Workers Centre (IWC) engaged in a struggle to gain compensation for Lamour employees. In 2023\, Stefan Christoff and Lauren Laframboise recorded short oral history interviews with four IWC organizers who were involved in the Lamour struggle (Mostafa Henaway\, Joey Calugay\, Yumna Siddiqi and Bita Mary Eslami). The interviews reveal the crucial role that the IWC plays in non-unionized industries that primarily employ immigrant workers. The IWC organizers also reflect on their own paths to community organizing\, and the ways that work has continued to transform amidst the rise in the logistics industry and temporary employment agencies.   \nThe interviews were broadcasted on the community radio show Free City Radio in September and October 2023. Based at CKUT 90.3 FM\, Free City Radio is hosted and produced by Stefan Christoff and is syndicated at five radio stations across Canada\, broadcast on Radio AlHara in occupied Palestine\, and is also released as a podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. The interviews were also completed in partnership with the Deindustrialization and the Politics of Our Time project based at COHDS. Listen to the interviews and find out more about the project here. This event will bring together those who were interviewed in a panel-style discussion to look back on the Lamour campaign collectively.   \n\nLauren Laframboise is a PhD student in History at Concordia and a Student Representative on the COHDS Administrative Board. Her research explores the impacts of deindustrialization in the apparel industry in Montréal and New York City. In 2021\, Lauren completed her MA in History at Concordia\, and from 2020-2022 she was the Associate Director of Deindustrialization and the Politics of Our Time (DéPOT). She has worked on a variety of public history projects exploring labour and immigration history\, including museum exhibitions\, online oral history platforms\, walking tours\, and documentary film and radio. She is also a member of the Concordia Research and Education Workers’ Union (CREW–CSN) Organizing Council and Co-convener of their Feminist Workplace Committee. \nStefan Christoff is a musician\, community radio host and student living in Tiohtià:ke / Montréal. \nMostafa Henaway\, a Canadian-born Egyptian\, is a long-time community organizer at the Immigrant Workers Centre in Montreal\, where he has been organizing for justice for immigrant/migrant workers for over two decades. He is also a researcher and PhD candidate at Concordia University. \nYumna Siddiqi is an Associate Professor of English at Middlebury College\, where she specializes in postcolonial literary studies. Her current research is on postcolonial literature\, migrants and the city. She has been a volunteer at the IWC-CTI since 2006\, and seen the Center grow from the little NGO that could to an immigrant labour power house. \nBita Mary Eslami is an Irani exile and a forever Montrealer. For two decades she has supported non-status and migrant families\, victims of police violence\, promoted child care and worked to advance the international BDS movement in solidarity with Palestinians. \n  \n\nREGISTRATION  \nPlease note that all of our events are free and open to all\, but you need to register!

SUMMARY:Book Launch: Out to Defend Ourselves: A History of Montreal's First Haitian Street Gang
DESCRIPTION:with Maxime Aurélien and Ted Rutland \nYou are cordially invited to join authors Maxime Aurélien and Ted Rutland for a discussion on their new book: Out to Defend Ourselves: A History of Montreal’s First Haitian Street Gang \nAbout the book: \nThis first critical history of a street gang in a Canadian city is a result of a four-year collaboration between a university professor (Ted Rutland) and the leader of les Bélangers (Maxime Aurélien). Out to Defend Ourselves tells the story of Montreal’s first Haitian street gang\, les Bélangers. It traces how the gang emerged from a group of Haitian friends\, the children of migrants from Haiti in the 1970s. It documents the forms of racial violence they experienced and their battles against them. It also documents the everyday lives of the gang members\, the petty crime some members engaged in to make ends meet\, and how the police actions against the gang changed its nature and function – making it\, finally\, a more criminally oriented and violent formation. It is a story about a gang\, but it is also a story of young Haitians making their lives in 1970s and 80s Montreal and a story about Montreal in a period of great change. \n\nMaxime Aurélien is the former leader of les Bélangers\, Montreal’s first Haitian street gang. He is the owner of Cash Content\, a pawn shop and barbershop in Montreal’s east end. \nTed Rutland is a professor at Concordia University. His research and activism focuses on the racial politics of urban planning and policing in Canadian cities. He is the author of Displacing Blackness: Planning\, Power\, and Race in Twentieth-Century Halifax. \n  \n\nREGISTRATION  \nPlease note that all of our events are free and open to all.

SUMMARY:*Cancelled* Violence and Solace : The Natal Civil War in Late-Apartheid South Africa
DESCRIPTION:*Please note that this event has been cancelled* \nwith Mxolisi R. Mchunu (University of KwaZulu-Natal)   \nEnglish/Français \n  \nIn South Africa\, the period leading to up to the country’s first democratic elections in April 1990 constituted a watershed moment. An unprecedented civil war – termed ‘black on black’ violence – pitted supporters of the African National Congress (ANC) against Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP). In 1989\, these conflicts escalated into open warfare and the arming of military units within ANC and IFP areas\, respectively.   \nWhile the conflict was ostensibly between the ANC and IFP\, state security forces were directly implicated in supplying arms and other support to the IFP. In the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands region\, the most violent period of the civil conflict lasted from 1986 to 1996. Most of those tortured and murdered were young men between the ages of thirteen and thirty-six.    \nThis talk will focus on the testimonies of women who survived this heinous war and their creation of self-defence units in the Natal-Midlands. A seven-minute audio-visual interviews conducted by the author and women combatants will be shown. The war took place not only in the battlefields but also in the homesteads\, spaces mostly occupied by women and children.    \n\nMxolisi R. Mchunu holds a Ph.D. in History from University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN). He is a post-doctoral student at the University of KwaZulu-Natal. He is the author of the award-winning Violence and Solace: The Natal Civil War in Late-Apartheid South Africa\, co-published by UKZN Press and the University of Virginia Press in 2021.    \n\nCOHDS/ALLAB is located on unceded Kanien’kehá:ka territory\, in Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition: COVID In the House Of Old - November 14 - 24
DESCRIPTION:Schedule: see below \n\n\nIn January 2022\, historian and COHDS-affiliate Megan Davies launched a travelling and online exhibition “Covid in the House of Old.” At the heart of the exhibition sit eight storytelling chairs. As Megan Davies notes\, “three of the seven chairs represent residents who died in care homes\, one is held by a support worker who was a nurse in Uganda; another by a resident who left the institution; and the sixth belongs to a woman from the Squamish First Nation in BC who endured a long isolation.” The seventh chair represents an entire facility – the Wikwemikong Nursing Home on Manitoulin Island in Northern Ontario – capturing the voices of both staff and residents.  \nAn activist historian interested in issues of social justice\, Dr. Davies wanted to collect stories “because I knew they would be an engine for social change.”  Objects of memory are mounted to the back of each chair\, while paper “Valentines\,” lovingly created by family and friends\, rest on each seat.The website also features a moving podcast and a petition to transform long-term residential careinCanada to prioritize quality of life. \nCentred around 7 “chairs” each representing an individual or community’s story\, the exhibition includes rich interviews and a “Story Space” that invites visitors to share their stories about COVID-19 in personal care homes as well as their thoughts about the future of long-term care.  \nCOHDS will be hosting the last leg of the exhibition\, which has been touring the country since April 30\, with bookings in Winnipeg (Manitoba)\, Saskatoon (Saskatchewan)\, and Nanaimo (British Columbia) and upcoming stops in Manitoulin Island and Toronto (Ontario). \nFor more information on the project\, visit https://covidinthehouseofold.ca \n\n  \nSchedule:\nNovember 14-19 \n\nWed.\, Nov. 15: 2-5 p.m. / 14h-17h\nThur.\, Nov. 16: 2-5 p.m. / 14h-17h\nFri.\, Nov. 17: 2-5 p.m. / 14h-17h\nSat.\, Nov. 18: 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. / 11h-17h\nSun.\, Nov. 19: 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. / 11h-17h\n\nNovember 20-24 \n\nMon.\, Nov. 20: Closed/ fermé\nTues.\, Nov. 21: 2-5 p.m. / 14h-17h \nWed.\, Nov. 22: 2-5 p.m. / 14h-17h\nThurs.\, Nov. 23: 2-5 p.m. / 14h-17h\nFri.\, Nov. 24: 2-5 p.m. / 14h-17h

SUMMARY:Where Literature and Oral History Meet | Quand la littérature rencontre l'histoire orale
DESCRIPTION:English/Français \nA Discussion With Professor Ceri Morgan & Copanelists \nIn this roundtable discussion\, Ceri Morgan\, writer and professor of Place Writing and Geohumanities (Keele University\, UK) and co-panelists explore the connections between literature and oral history. Stories\, poems\, essays\, and literary audio walks that sample oral history interviews uncover the layered histories of landscapes and the diverse experiences of marginalized people. They do so while showcasing the poetic potential of everyday speech. Oral history can also leverage the interview to highlight the unseen labour that goes into literary production: proofreading\, translation\, event organizing\, etc. How does oral history diversify and democratize literature\, and how does literary practice poeticize oral history? \n\nUne discussion avec la professeure Ceri Morgan & panélistes \nLors de cette table ronde\, un groupe de panélistes se joint à la professeure Ceri Morgan de l’Université Keele au Royaume-Uni\, spécialisée en géo-humanité et en écriture des lieux. Ensemble\, nous allons explorer les liens entre la littérature et l’histoire orale. Les récits\, les poèmes\, les essais et les balades audio littéraires qui échantillonnent les voix des entretiens nous permettent d’accéder à la complexité de l’histoire d’un paysage et aux voix diverses des personnes marginalisées\, tout en mettant en valeur l’aspect poétique de la parole quotidienne. L’histoire orale peut également mettre en lumière le travail invisible qui accompagne la production littéraire : relecture\, traduction\, organisation d’événements\, etc. Comment l’histoire orale diversifie-t-elle et démocratise-t-elle la littérature\, et comment la pratique littéraire poétise-t-elle l’histoire orale ? \n  \nREGISTRATION \nPlease note that all of our events are free and open to all\, but you need to register!

SUMMARY:Book Launch: Small Stories of War: Children\, Youth and Conflict in Canada and Beyond (McGill-Queen’s University Press\, 2023)
DESCRIPTION:With Barbara Lorenzkowski\, Kristine Alexander\, and Andrew Burtch   \nEnglish \nMany believed the twentieth century would be the century of the child: an era in which modern societies would value and protect children\, sheltering them from violence and poverty. Yet this hopeful vision was marred by the harsh realities of migration\, displacement\, and armed conflict.  \nSmall Stories of War grapples with the meanings and memories of childhood and wartime by asking new questions about lived experience. Spanning the First World War to the early twenty-first century and featuring chapters about Canada\, Australia\, Germany\, the former Yugoslavia\, Rwanda\, and northern Uganda\, this volume asks how young people encountered and responded to armed conflict. How did children\, youth\, and their families make sense of war in the violent twentieth century? How have they shared their stories and experiences of violence and trauma? Analyzing a broad range of sources including family letters\, oral history\, and children’s artwork\, contributors offer important insights into the production of historical knowledge with and about young people.  \nYou are cordially invited to join the editors and contributors of this collection in the launch of this collection.  \n\nBarbara Lorenzkowski is the Lead Co-Director of COHDS and Associate Professor and Associate Chair of History at Concordia University.  \nKristine Alexander is Canada Research Chair in Child and Youth Studies and Associate Professor of History at the University of Lethbridge.  \nAndrew Burtch is the post-1945 historian at the Canadian War Museum and Adjunct Research Professor in Carleton University’s History Department.  \nREGISTRATION \n Please note that all of our events are free and open to all\, but you need to register!

SUMMARY:(Pre)Creation Processes: Milo Rau's Tribunals\, Political Actions\, and Prefigurative Performance
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Lily Climenhaga\, PhD \nThis talk will primarily explore two lines of work within Swiss-German political theatre director Milo Rau’s multifaceted oeuvre: (1) his political action performances exemplified by projects like The Congo Tribunal and The Revolt of Dignity (2019)\, and (2) site specific adaptations of classic texts exemplified by The Trilogy of Ancient Myths (Orestes in Mosul (2019)\, The New Gospel (2020)\, Antigone in the Amazons (2023)). \nOver the past fifteen years\, Rau and his production company\, the International Institute of Political Murder or IIPM\, has won international attention for his transnational\, politically engaged\, documentary-inspired theatre. With his appointment as artistic director of the Belgian city-theatre NTGent in 2018\, Rau showed increased interest in what he refers to as “conflict zones”\, building on an existing interest in the impact of neoliberal economic policy on the Global South first marked by The Congo Tribunal (2015/17). \nThis talk will look at Rau’s onsite\, ethnographic\, research-based approach as it searches for solutions fostered by the creation of what the director calls “practical networks of solidarity” between local and international partners\, allying – for better or for worse – the grassroots with the global. \n\nLily Climenhaga wrote the dissertation (Re)Creation Processes: Milo Rau and the International Institute of Political Murder in a joint degree between the University of Alberta and Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität and the co-editor of Theater’s special 2021 edition on Milo Rau. Lily is currently undertaking the FWO-funded postdoctoral project “Institutionalized Resistance: Milo Rau’s NTGent Period” at Universiteit Gent. Lily is a dramaturg\, editor\, blogger (https://lostdramaturgininternational.wordpress.com)\, critic\, translator\, and occasional stage manager.
