If you know of someone who has obtained employment in or outside of the academy, delivered a public lecture, given an interview, written an editorial or a notable blog entry, won a non-academic prize or a teaching award, or has been awarded an honorary degree, let us know! Here are a few developments that members have told us about over the past months: Thu, 12 Dec 2019 15:30:19 GMT https://depot.erudit.org//id/004464dd Title: Obituaries / Nécrologie <br/> <br/>Authors: Kealey, Linda; Elliott, Bruce; Campbell, Isabel <br/> <br/>Issue Date: 2019-12-12 Thu, 12 Dec 2019 15:27:59 GMT https://depot.erudit.org//id/004463dd Title: History on the Web / L’Histoire sur la toile <br/> <br/>Authors: Wright, Miriam <br/> <br/>Issue Date: 2019-12-12 <br/> <br/>Abstract: Sports headlines over the past few years remind us of the ways that race and sports intersect in both the past and the present. Willie O’Ree’s induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame, NFL player protests, and ethnic slurs hurled at First Nations hockey players, among others, all suggest that sports can offer insights into racial injustice in society, as well as the fight against it. Over the past three years, I have been part of a university-community group that has developed a website and public history project to help students explore these issues. In June, 2017, we launched “Breaking the Colour Barrier: Wilfred “Boomer” Harding and the Chatham Coloured All-Stars” (http://cdigs.uwindsor.ca/ BreakingColourBarrier/). In 1934, the All-Stars were the first amateur Black baseball team to win a provincial championship in the predominantly white Ontario Baseball Association. Like many athletes from historically-marginalized communities, the players regularly faced racial and economic barriers playing ball in 1930s southern Ontario. While their descendants and community members have remembered and commemorated the team’s achievements and hardships, the All-Stars’ story has received little attention outside Chatham.

Le Comité du programme a choisi pour thème « Conversations à travers le temps, l’espace et les cultures » pour encourager la participation de chercheuses et de chercheurs travaillant sur différents sujets, thèmes, périodes et lieux géographiques et ayant recours à différentes approches méthodologiques à penser de manière critique l’importance des « conversations » dans la création et la dissémination du savoir historique.
