SUMMARY:Breaking knowledge hegemony through transdisciplinary research practice
DESCRIPTION:Marsha Hinds Myrie will be presenting the next One Health seminar on Wednesday\, November 13. Marsha is an Educational Developer\, Anti-oppressive and Inclusive Pedagogies in the Office of Teaching and Learning at the University of Guelph. \nMarsha Hinds Myrie’s life and work are an embodiment of dualities and intersections. She is a Barbadian/Canadian citizen with an ancestral\, cultural\, and intellectual home in Africa. Her career unfolds\, sometimes spectacularly and sometimes confusingly\, at the intersections of activism and education. She is a public intellectual steeped in the Caribbean intellectual tradition and critical studies. \nMarsha spent 23 years developing an advocacy model to address the issues of underprivileged groups of women in Barbados and the Commonwealth Caribbean. The major focus of the work is to develop and encourage the use of victim-defined services for women and girls affected by various types of gender-based violence while at the same time removing the burden of eradicating violence from women and victims by forcing greater attention to systemic oppression and a stronger lobby in policy spaces.

SUMMARY:On Cuddling: Loved to Death in the Racial Embrace—Reading and Conversation with Dr. Phanuel Antwi (UBC)
DESCRIPTION:Ranging from the terrifying embrace of the slave ship’s hold to the racist encoding of ‘cuddly’ toys\, On Cuddling is a unique combination of essay and poetry that contends with the way racial violence is enacted through intimacy. Informed by Black feminist and queer poetics\, Antwi focuses his lens on the suffering of Black people at the hands of state violence and racial capitalism. As radical movements grow to advance Black liberation\, so too must our ways of understanding how racial capitalism embraces us all. Antwi turns to cuddling\, an act we imagine as devoid of violence\, and explores it as a tense transfer point of power. \nDr. Phanuel Antwi is the Canada Research Chair in Black Arts and Epistemologies in the Department of English Language and Literatures at the University of British Columbia. He is an artist\, teacher and organizer concerned with race\, poetics\, movements\, intimacy\, and struggle. He works with text\, dance\, film\, and photography to intervene in artistic\, academic\, and public spaces. He is a curator\, activist\, and associate professor. He is an alumnus of the U of G and a research team member with the IICSI. \nPresented by Interdisciplinary Programs\, the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation\, and the Office of Academic Equity and Anti-Racism

Set in 1930s Scotland against a backdrop of rising political tensions\, this relevant work prompts the audience to consider issues of trust and leadership. \nThis production is directed by School of Theatre\, English\, and Creative Writing faculty member and renowned Canadian playwright Professor Judith Thompson. \nPerformance and production work is by third and fourth year Theatre Studies students. The production also features Stephanie Jones\, a Theatre Studies PhD student in the title role of Jean Brodie. Stephanie brings many years of professional experience to the role. Professor Thompson is assisted by PhD student Erin O’Brien. \nWe hope you can join us for one of the three evening performances. \nThe ARC Theatre is an 80 seat performance space with flat access and proximity to an accessible washroom. The majority of the seating is tiered with limited floor-level seats. \nThis performance contains bright lights\, lighting shifts\, and some sudden noises. It also contains themes of control and power\, grooming and bullying behaviours\, references to war and death\, and depictions of intimate/sexual contact as well as references to sexual and physical abuse and historical opinions and beliefs. \nIt runs just over two hours including a 15 minute intermission. \n“The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French\, Inc. \nFor tickets\, more information\, and to support the production\, please visit the Eventbrite page.

SUMMARY:Interactive Workshop: Racialized Student Food Insecurity in Digital Stories

Even at the University of Guelph\, Canada’s Food University\, students from racially and ethnically marginalized backgrounds struggle to access the foods required for nutrition\, enrichment\, and cultural connection. Taking seriously the impacts this has on the overall health of the students and the University community\, we are inviting students\, staff\, and faculty across campus to participate in our screening workshop Food Justice on Campus: Racialized Student Food Insecurity in Digital Stories. \nAbout the Workshop\nIn this interactive workshop\, we will engage in critical conversations about how to promote food justice on campus by watching and reflecting on four short creative videos on the intricacies of race\, culture\, food\, and student living. Participants will be invited to an active and supportive environment to take part in a diverse\, embodied\, and creative dialogue about the food crisis facing racialized and Indigenous students especially\, and the student population more generally. Following the workshop\, participants will also be invited to share their own stories over good food and good vibes. Dinner will include a vegan hearty stew and an authentic Ghanaian chicken and rice dish catered by Community FEWD (Food Equity With Dignity). \nThere are a limited number of in-person spots available\, and the workshop will also be livestreamed over Zoom. A Zoom link will be sent to online participants the day before the event. \nThe workshop is supported by Arrell Food Insitute\, the Community Engaged Scholarship Institute\, The Guelph Lab\, Re•Vision: The Centre for Art and Social Justice\, and the International Institute for Critical Studies in Improvisation. \nAbout the Facilitators\nThis workshop is facilitated by Dr. Jade Da Costa (they/she)\, a Banting Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Family Relations & Applied Nutrition with Re•Vision: The Centre for Art and Social Justice\, and Naty Tremblay (they/them)\, an Interdisciplinary Artist & Educator for Transformative Justice & Regenerative Reciprocity and PhD candidate in the Social Practice & Transformational Change Program. \nRSVP by Tuesday\, November 26 at 5 p.m.
