Quick warning. Today's episode involves some discussion of sexual violence. It comes up early, and we wanted to give you a heads up. 00:00:08 Music Music Quiet music with melodic singing. 00:00:12 Ben Harrison Host The French title of today’s film is Rebelle, which is a true cognate: means the same in English as you would guess. But that’s not its English title, maybe because the word "rebel" has been so thoroughly monopolized in English by a single entertainment franchise. Rebels have graduated from bullseyeing womp rats in their T-16s and are now taking the fight to the Empire. But despite that near monopoly of association, it remains easy for the media to completely rob us of a nuanced understanding of a civil conflict by using the term "rebel" to describe one of the sides. It starts to evoke terms like "freedom fighters," which we've all been trained to mentally translate as "terrorists." In today’s film, our main character Komona feels so far from all of these definitions. She is a twelve-year-old girl, who is basically too young to be motivated by the forces we imagine inspire people to become rebels. In fact, it’s the rebels that completely wreck her life. Her coastal village is just sitting there minding its own business when they come collect the youngsters, force her to murder her family, and then spirit her away in a motorized tree trunk canoe to become a soldier for their cause.

  • INFLUENTIAL TIME for MONTRÉAL in BARCELONA for More Than a Century, the Mercè De Barcelone Has Been One of Europe’S Greatest Events
    “At the top of all the charts, Montréal has acquired an enviable reputation on the world stage—and culture plays an important role in this.” Mélanie Joly Minister of Canadian Heritage Martin Coiteux Minister of Municipal Affairs and Land Occupancy, Minister of Public Security, Minister responsible for Montréal region INFLUENTIAL TIME FOR MONTRÉAL IN BARCELONA For more than a century, the Mercè de Barcelone has been one of Europe’s greatest events. This late-summer festival attracts more than two million participants and tourists. Montréal was the guest of honour in 2013. The program developed by Montréal featured the city’s digital creativity and artistic invent- iveness. Without a doubt, the highlight was provided by Moment Factory, based on an idea of Renaud – Architecture d’événe- ments: a multimedia spectacle projected on the facade of the Sagrada Família, Gaudí’s celebrated, if still unfinished, basilica. Titled Ode à la vie, it was a homage to the work of the Barcelona architect who, through the play of light and optics, emphasized lines and sculptures, while bringing poetic images to life, as if rising up from a dream. For three even- ings the show was acclaimed by thousands of enchanted spectators. A creation by Cirque Éloize, an electronic music performance presented by Piknic Électronik, a concert performed by traditional music group Le Vent du Nord and a festival of Québec films filled out this rich and varied programming—all in the image of the city they represent!

I would never have been able to finish this without the two of you. I would like to thank the Memorial university Gender Studies department for guiding me (and tolerating me) on this lengthy journey. I would also like to thank some of my long-time mentors from the English department, Dr. Christopher Lockett, Dr. Jennifer Lokash, and Dr. Andrew Loman, who have been supporting me in my academic career for over ten years. I would like to thank my family, especially my husband Scott, for bearing with me throughout this, and always believing in me. I would like to thank my sons, Jack and Wyatt, who I hope will not follow stereotypical white, male, patriarchal roles. I hope they will someday read their mother’s research and take the feminine experience seriously. I would like to dedicate this work to all of my sisters—not merely my biological family, my cis- ters, or my white sisters, but all women, who are worthy of power, autonomy, and agency.
