SUMMARY:COHDS Choir: Sounds of Home\, Sounds of Elsewheres
DESCRIPTION:With Sara Lucas \n“Sounds of Home\, Sounds of Elsewheres” is a community choir project led by Sara Lucas\, open to COHDS members who want to sing together beyond their research. The repertoire will explore storytelling through song\, focusing on how personal and community histories are shared and passed down. \nThe project embraces the idea that everyone can express themselves through sound and movement\, using an inclusive approach to developing natural voices. Songs will be learned mainly by ear\, so no singing or music-reading experience is required. Rehearsals will emphasize breathwork\, harmony\, and unison singing\, encouraging diverse forms of expression and joy. The group will work toward a performance for COHDS’ 20th anniversary in October 2026\, with participation encouraged but not mandatory. \nSara Lucas is a composer-performer and vocalist with twenty years of ensemble experience. She has toured internationally with Callers and LADAMA\, produced multiple albums\, and taught community-based music programs worldwide.

SUMMARY:Ethics in Research:  How to Apply for  Ethics Certification
DESCRIPTION:With Barbara Lorenzkowski\, Tesfa Peterson\, Franklin Bonivento Van Grieken and Derek Xavier Garcia \nTo obtain the informed consent of our research participants is both an ethical and institutional obligation for oral historians working at Canadian universities. This workshop seeks to demystify the process of applying for ethics certification. Three emerging scholars will reflect on their experiences in navigating this process and discuss how they have translated the ethos of “sharing authority” into the formal language of their ethics applications. Meanwhile\, Lead Co-Director Barbara Lorenzkowski will provide hands-on guidance on how to prepare an ethics application for your own thesis research at Concordia. Registered participants will be provided with examples of successful ethics applications\, including consent forms. \nBarbara Lorenzkowski is an oral historian of childhood and youth whose work explores the ways in which global processes of migration\, displacement\, and violence have shaped small people’s lives in outsized ways. She recently published the co-edited anthology Small Stories of War: Children\, Youth\, and Conflict in Canada and Beyond (with Kristine Alexander and Andrew Burt\, McGill-Queen’s University Press 2023) and is currently completing a FQRSC-funded book project The Children’s War\, a large-scale oral history project on children’s sensuous and emotional life-worlds in Atlantic Canada during the Second World War. Dr. Lorenzkowski is the Lead Co-Director of COHDS. \nTesfa Aki Peterson is a public humanities researcher and community-based scholar whose work centers Caribbean history\, feminist postcolonial thought\, and participatory storytelling. As a student in the PhD Humanities program at Concordia University\, her current project traces the life and legacy of Helen Louise Langdon Norton Little\, a woman born in LaDigue\, Grenada in the late nineteenth century\, whose life connected Grenada\, Montreal\, and the American Midwest. Helen Little was active in the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) in Montreal and was the mother of eight children\, including civil rights leader Malcolm X. Grounded in community knowledge and Caribbean feminist and postcolonial perspectives\, her work asks how public humanities can preserve and honor lives that have been marginalized by colonial archives\, while creating inclusive\, intergenerational spaces for learning in both Grenada and the diaspora. Since 2020\, she has collaborated with the Institute for People’s Enlightenment in the Grenadian village of LaDigue to organize lectures\, storytelling sessions\, and public conversations that center local voices and oral histories. Additionally\, the project also extends to Montreal through an oral history and ritual storytelling podcast documenting Grenadian women’s community organizing. Across storybooks\, podcasts\, workshops\, and public events\, Tesfa’s work models a decolonial public humanities rooted in care\, collaboration\, and community memory. \nFranklin Bonivento Van Grieken  studied Anthropology (honor degree\, 2019) and has a master’s degree in History (Cum Laude thesis\, 2022) at the National University of Colombia in Bogotá\, Colombia. As a son\, and grandson\, of indigenous Wayuu women\, and as a son of a Jewish man\, his academic life has been focused on comprehending his own roots and finding ways to communicate them\, as well as on Caribbean history\, Wayuu people cosmovision\, oralities\, migrations\, frontiers\, and musicology. In that respect\, he has explored different formats such as essays\, creative narratives\, and since 2015 he has been engaged in radio broadcasting and podcasting. This experience of creation has served as a form to make and show research: exploring the sound-essays\, radio-documentaries\, podcasting\, among others. He has worked\, too\, in museography\, writing books\, fieldwork\, and has always considered interdisciplinary work more of a conviction than an option\, jumping between the boundaries of disciplines to have big conversations and to find methods and techniques to apprehend our reality\, therefore finding new questions\, new responses\, and new audiences. \nDerek Xavier Garcia is a PhD candidate in the Department of History at Concordia University\, Montréal\, and a 2025–2026 Scholar-in-Residence at the Centre for Oral History and Digital Storytelling. He was previously a 2023–2024 Mellon Foundation Resident Scholar in Latino Studies at the School for Advanced Research in Santa Fe\, New Mexico. His research falls at the intersections of the culture\, memory\, and history of Mexican American activist movements\, particularly at the first Mexican American college in the United States\, Colegio Jacinto Treviño (1969-1976). He has published in American Quarterly and Aztlán: A Journal of Chicano Studies. \n  \nREGISTRATION \nRegister now with this link \nPlease note that all our events are free and open to all\, but registration is mandatory.
