An incredibly moving letter from Holocaust survivor Helen Fagin on the power of stories. Thank you @brainpicker for helping Helen share her story. #bookssavelives #neverforget brainpickings.org/2018/12/18/a-v…


Should prove to be a very interesting read.

Just launched 🚀: our new @amnesty report making the case that Google & Facebook’s surveillance-based business model is a systemic threat to human rights amnesty.org/en/latest/news…



Very much looking forward to visiting the Mezuzah Okno joint exhibition at @MilesNadalJCC and the #Fenster gallery @MakomTO.

Tonight is the opening of the Mezuzah Okno exhibit and all are welcome to attend at the Fentster gallery. cjnews.com/culture/entert…



Hogan: willingness to adapt and take in other ways of knowing and doing key for archivists of settler heritage. #AccessCare2019


George: Canadian copyright law is an infringement on Indigenous cultural property and their rights to control it. #AccessCare2019 #copyrightproblems #decolonizingarchives


Heather George: are we trying so hard to be a science that we lose sight of the humanities aspect of our work? #AccessCare2019


Corbiere: collaborations with settler repositories are necessary but not all of the time. Context and dialogue are key. #AccessCare2019


Us settler archivists are here today to listen to the Indigenous knowledge keepers about their ways of memory keeping. This is essential work. #AccessCare2019 #IndigenousArchives #DecolonizingArchives


Feel very privileged to be at #AccessCare2019 @ArchivesOntario. Looking forward to some deep listening and learning 👂🏼👂🏼

The remarkable story of one of my queer heros/heroines. Jackie Shane was an iconoclastic trailblazer whose memory is finally getting its due. #queerhistory #lgbthistory #torontoqueerhistory #weareeverywhere cbc.ca/player/play/15…

Thank you, @olivianne, for sharing the stories of public libraries in Canada and the work being done by library workers to respond to the changing needs of their communities.

Writing is painful and difficult and stressful. I'd be lying if I said I didn't cry when working on this story. Thank you for reading it, or even just parts of it. I have one last thing to ask of you: visit your local library.
