Afua Cooper, "Ever True to the Cause of Freedom – Henry Bibb
Ever True to the Cause of Freedom Henry Bibb: Abolitionist and Black Freedom’s Champion, 1814-1854 Afua Cooper Black abolitionists in North America, through their activism, had a two-fold objective: end American slavery and eradicate racial prejudice, and in so doing promote race uplift and Black progress. To achieve their aims, they engaged in a host of pursuits that included lecturing, fund-raising, newspaper publishing, writing slave narratives, engaging in Underground Railroad activities, and convincing the uninitiated to do their part for the antislavery movement. A host of Black abolitionists, many of whom had substantial organizational experience in the United States, moved to Canada in the three decades stretching from 1830 to 1860. Among these were such activists as Henry Bibb, Mary Bibb, Martin Delany, Theodore Holly, Josiah Henson, Mary Ann Shadd, Samuel Ringgold Ward, J.C. Brown and Amelia Freeman. Some like Henry Bibb were escaped fugitive slaves, others like J.C. Brown had bought themselves out of slavery. Some like Amelia Freeman and Theodore Holly were free-born Blacks. None has had a more tragic past however than Henry Bibb. Yet he would come to be one of the 19th century’s foremost abolitionists. At the peak of his career, Bibb migrated to Canada and made what was perhaps his greatest contribution to the antislavery movement: the establishment of the Black press in Canada. This discussion will explore Bibb’s many contributions to the Black freedom movement but will provide a special focus on his work as a newspaper founder and publisher. Henry Bibb was born in slavery in Kentucky around 1814.1 Like so many other African American slaves, Bibb’s parentage was biracial. -
A Last Talk with Leslie Mcfarlane
A Last Talk with Leslie McFarlane DA VID PALMER L eslie McFarlane, one of the world's most popular children's authors and a prolific contributor to Canadian popular culture, died on September 6th, 1977, in Whitby, Ontario. Born at Carleton Place, Ontario, in 1902, he worked as a reporter for several newspapers in Ontario and Massachusetts, and from the twenties to the forties contributed hundreds of stories and serials to the "better pulps" and "sn~ooth-paper magazines" (as Maclean's explained in 1940) in Canada, the U.S.A. and Great Britain. In this period he also published two novels, and under various pseudonyms wrote numerous children's adventure books for the Stratemeyer Syndicate of New Jersey (home of the Bobbsey Twins), including the first Hardy Boys books. In the late thirties and forties he wrote dozens of radio plays, and in 1944, after two years with the Department of Munitions and Supply, he was invited by John Grierson to join the National Film Board. During the next fourteen years he wrote, produced or directed (often all three) twenty- eight documentary fbs, winning several awards and an Oscar nomination. In 1958 he became head of the television drama script department at the CBC and wrote many television plays for that and other networks. He continued to produce occasional books (and revisions of earlier works) for children, and some of these later writings are reviewed elsewhere in this issue of CCL. Ironically, in view of this enormous output, McFarlane is probably best known now as the original Franklin W. -

4 — Gendering Dub Culture Across Diaspora — Jamaican Female Dub Poets in Canada and England FRO-CARIBBEAN WOMEN DUB POETS have long incorporated feminist aesthetics into their work, thereby bringing a unique per- A spective to dub culture. Not surprisingly, then, and following in the tradition of Una Marson and Louise Bennett, the Jamaican Canadian dub poets Afua Cooper, Ahdri Zhina Mandiela, and Lillian Allen all employ an African- Jamaican aesthetic to articulate the social conditions of black women in Africa and the diaspora and to call for opposition to patriarchal systems of oppression and black male dominance in the private sphere. This feminist discourse in dub poetry is particularly highlighted in Canada because Allen, Cooper, and Man- diela have been so instrumental to dub culture in that country. While I focus primarily on these three artists in this chapter, I also include some reflections on the work of Jean ‘Binta’ Breeze1 of the UK to provide a comparative analysis of how these writers utilize local Jamaican cultures to articulate black female experience. While this chapter takes up race, class, and gender by female dub poets, this is not to suggest that earlier (as well as current) Jamaican creative writers have not also worked with these themes. However, it is important to note that, historically, dub poetry has been dominated by a male perspective and has focused thematically on race and class issues. This is a result of dub poetry’s strong black-nationalist and pan-Africanist ties as both philosophies have tended to overlook intersections of gender and race in their framing of political 1 Although ‘Binta’ Breeze often distances herself from dub poetry, I include her work because some of her poems clearly experiment with a dub aesthetic. -

When a local Radio station announcer's voice reaches his listeners as they tune in his programs - news, chatter, music, - day after day, year after year, it's the voice of an old friend. They see him in church, at the movies and at social affairs. Some of them went to school with him. Others remember his erstwhile predilection for their cookie jars. And when he tells them about your products, it isn't a high-pressure "pitch". It's just the voice of a friend, offering advice to his neighbors on what and where to buy.
