"The history of Norman Wells looks quite different when it is told from...the perspective of Sahtú Dene and Métis...In this post, we centre the voices and perspectives of our people. Industry and government narratives have been left for the footnotes." activehistory.ca/blog/2023/12/0…
"Sahtú Dene and Métis have been little more than a footnote in conventional histories of Norman Wells, if we are mentioned at all. Our people and our stories are absent from corporate and state archives; we have been overlooked and erased." activehistory.ca/blog/2023/12/0…

#EnvHist folks, I'm looking for scholarship on the history of environmental assessment in Canada. Most of what I've found so far is from legal scholars and resource management researchers. Would love work by historians. Thanks for your help!
If you're an Indigenous student at the U of A please apply for next year! If you are not, consider purchasing a set of our 150 Acts of Reconciliation posters so we can continue to offer this award. 150acts.weebly.com/shop.html
Through our #150Acts project @crystalfraser and I established the Gwiizii ts'àt gwitàatsàh award to support Indigenous students at @UAlberta. We've updated our website to celebrate the first two recipients: 150acts.weebly.com/gwiizii-tsagra…
For #NationalIndigenousHistoryMonth I'm going to make a thread of resources - take your pick, I'll explain what they are.
The rise of pieces "debunking" the findings of the possible locations of unmarked graves of missing children who died at residential schools is deeply concerning. Framing these as "debunking" is harmful. Here's why. A🧵

1/ So much to celebrate about the life of Natalie Zemon Davis - a long life well lived to the end & an extraordinary impact over decades. She loomed large in my career from when I decided not to do a PhD with her at Princeton but follow my boyfriend to Hopkins instead:-)
Nova Scotia history often includes some discussion of trade with the West Indies (the greater Caribbean). And our historians of slavery show that enslaved people in NS were bought and sold by white NSian traders in business with Caribbean counterparts. I have a story to add. 1/12
@liamjdevitt I had a "chapter group" with @davebanoub and @jessddunkin that worked well. Every week one member shares a chapter, the others read it, then you meet up (online or in person) and talk about it. It creates a fun incentive to do your writing.

The world is not addicted to plastic. People don't buy products in plastic packages because they just can't get enough plastic, they buy them because there's no other choice. Corporations are addicted to plastic, and governments are addicted to not regulating corporations.
