Alice Zou, [email protected] 669 Shaw St. Toronto Inter‐Continental Hotel Toronto, ON 220 Bloor Street West, Suite 325 M6G 3L8 Ph: 416‐960‐5200 Office: 416‐536‐1696 Cell 213‐359‐5775 [email protected] SYNOPSIS As the ‘60s rolled to a close, the United States was at the threshold of a turbulent time in history. President Nixon was in the White House and the U.S. was at war in Vietnam. The image of the picture‐perfect, stay‐at‐home housewife with the ideal husband and family was being threatened. Forces of change—a sexual revolution, the use of hallucinogenic drugs and a new founded challenge to authority—had crept into family rooms and dinning table conversations. Raised in a traditional Christian family, Perry leads a sheltered life, always doing what is expected of him. He has a wonderful virgin Christian girlfriend, Dorothy. He attends church with his family on Sundays and enjoys family dinners. He is following a career path that will prevent him from being drafted to fight in Vietnam. As a chemist he is book smart and company driven, but doesn’t know the harsh realities of the world. Everything he believes in is challenged the day he is chosen to be a jury member in a hippie death cult murder trial, where the defendant on trial is a strikingly beautiful woman named Leslie.

  • Teaching Indigenous Literatures
    Teaching Indigenous Literatures “Indigenous literatures have dramatically changed the literary, cultural, and theoretical landscape of English studies in Canada” – Emma LaRocque (Cree-Métis) Thanks to the prodigious output and brilliant creativity of Indigenous writers and scholars, there has been increased academic attention to, and interest in, Indigenous literary works . Indigenous artists not only have garnered much attention through major Canadian literary awards, they also have been at the forefront of literary innovation. For scholars less familiar with Indigenous literatures, these works offer an exciting new foray into literary study.. The experience, however, can also be challenging, especially for non-Indigenous scholars who aspire to engage with, and to teach, Indigenous literature in a culturally-sensitive manner. For those who aspire toward such an ethical approach, this list is an excellent starting point. Though far from exhaustive, it provides an overview of Indigenous writings from Turtle Island (North America), thus acting as a gateway into the complex network of Indigenous literatures in its various styles, genres, and subject-matters. In addition to well-known works, new works from emerging Indigenous writers are also identified. This annotated bibliography thus attempts to offer a diverse glimpse of the historic, thematic, and cultural breadth of Indigenous literatures emerging from centuries-long traditions of story, song, and performance – something representative of hundreds of different nations and tribes on Turtle Island. Since it is impossible to name works from all of these multinational voices, this list aspires merely to identify a broad range of writers from various Indigenous nations, albeit with a strong local focus on Anishinaabe, Cree, and Métis authors, upon whose territories and homelands the University of Manitoba is located.

  • Changing the Narrative from the Inside: a Look at How Strength and Narrative Based Service Delivery Can Function As a Space of Resistance for Indigenous Women
    Western University Scholarship@Western Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository 4-13-2021 2:00 PM Changing the narrative from the inside: A look at how strength and narrative based service delivery can function as a space of resistance for Indigenous women Jennifer Elgie, The University of Western Ontario Supervisor: Shuey, K., The University of Western Ontario A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the equirr ements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree in Sociology © Jennifer Elgie 2021 Follow this and additional works at: https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/etd Recommended Citation Elgie, Jennifer, "Changing the narrative from the inside: A look at how strength and narrative based service delivery can function as a space of resistance for Indigenous women" (2021). Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository. 7752. https://ir.lib.uwo.ca/etd/7752 This Dissertation/Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by Scholarship@Western. It has been accepted for inclusion in Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository by an authorized administrator of Scholarship@Western. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract This research focuses on the narrative surrounding Indigenous women by examining different knowledge sources – news stories and life stories, as they transpire within different knowledge spaces – non-Indigenous newspapers, the London Free Press and the Globe and Mail, and an Indigenous service delivery organization called Positive Voice. Drawing on an Indigenous aligned feminist mixed-methodological approach, this research had three main objectives: 1) to document and critically analyze the current mainstream narrative surrounding Indigenous women; 2) to understand the narratives Indigenous women share themselves in order to bring meaning to their experiences, from their own voices; and 3) to understand how service delivery might act as a thread between these diverging sources of representation.
