[Comicsstudiessociety] Videos of guest speakers on Indigenous comics at UWinnipeg

[Candida Rifkind]

Hi there. Since some of you asked if they will be recorded, I wanted to let you know that we have now posted video links to the guest speakers for the One Book U Winnipeg program organized around the Indigenous comics anthology, This Place: 150 Years Retold.


Cole Pauls gave an extended version of his CSS Ryerson 2019 talk about how his family, community, and elders helped him create the Dakwakada Warriors.


Graphic novelist David Alexander Robertson gave a powerful talk about growing up Cree in a small town, where bullying, combined with racist images in comics, inspired him to tell stories in his own voice.


The other videos are more specific to This Place, and may be of interest to anyone working with it. There is a good discussion of what "Indigenous futurism" means by Chelsea Vowel in the panel discussion.


All videos are available at the One Book UW website and will remain archived there: https://www.uwinnipeg.ca/1b19/video-archive.html


Thanks,


Candida
