MacKinnon Auditorium, Don and Marion McDougall Hall. In the first Trudeau Lecture to come to the ÐãÉ«¶ÌÊÓƵ, beloved Métis author and playwright Maria Campbell, 2012 Trudeau Fellow, talks about the connection between her volunteering, her academic career, and her work in literature, theatre, and video to end violence against women. Growing up in a Road Allowance Métis community in northern Saskatchewan, Dr. Campbell witnessed the power that women in her community exercised, as well as the violence they experienced. A lifelong student of Indigenous oral history, she will speak to what she has learned of traditional ways that fostered respect and authority for Aboriginal women, and about how colonization disrupted those ways and introduced gendered violence. Admission is free and all are welcome to attend. Light refreshments will be served.
