Marty Gervais and André NarbonneAbout our guests: The Publishing Practicum is a different kind of University of Windsor English course.

They're both joining us today to talk about the history of the program, the two books that the Practicum launched this year, and what the future holds for this popular educational experience. Usually at the end of the podcast, we have the author read a selection from the book. This time, we have readings from some of the poets who participated in the anthologies.

Katrina Srigley is associate professor in the Department of History at Nipissing University in North Bay, Canada. Author of the award-winning monograph Breadwinning Daughters: Young Working-Women in a Depression Era City (University of Toronto, 2010), Srigley’s scholarship forefronts women’s collective and individual experiences and explores the dynamics of memory making and storytelling. Her Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC)-funded research developed in partnership with Nipissing First Nation picks up the themes of storytelling and engaged practice. Franca Iacovetta is a Canadian feminist historian of women and gender, the immigrant working classes, and the Cold War in Canada and a transnational scholar of Italian women workers and radical antifascist exiles around the globe. Her accomplishments include her award-winning scholarship, her mentoring of students, and her outreach to women, working-class, and multicultural communities. An activist historian, she is a co-founder of the Canadian Workers Arts and Heritage Centre and has been involved in various film projects, including, most recently, a documentary on wartime internment. She is president of the Berkshire Conference of Women Historians and host of the upcoming Berkshire Conference in Women’s History at UofT in 2014. Beyond Women's Words: Feminisms and the Practices of Oral History in the Twenty-First Century Edited by Katrina Srigley, Stacey Zembrzycki, and Franca Iacovetta Beyond Women’s Words unites feminist scholars, artists, and community activists working with the stories of women and other historically marginalized subjects to address the contributions and challenges of doing feminist oral history. Feminists who work with oral history methods want to tell stories that matter. They know, too, that the telling of those stories—the processes by which they are generated and recorded, and the different contexts in which they are shared and interpreted—also matters—a lot. Using Sherna Berger Gluckand Daphne Patai’s classic text, Women’s Words, as a platform to reflect on how feminisms, broadly defined, have influenced, and continue to influence, the wider field of oral history, this remarkable collection brings together an international, multi-generational, and multidisciplinary line-up of authors whose work highlights the great variety in understandings of, and approaches to, feminist oral histories. Through five thematic sections, the volume considers Indigenous modes of storytelling, feminism in diverse locales around the globe, different theoretical approaches, oral history as performance, digital oral history, and oral history as community-engagement. Beyond Women’s Words is ideal for students of oral history, anthropology, public history, women’s and gender history, and Women’s and Gender Studies, as well as activists, artists, and community-engaged practitioners.

Ursula Gobel, Associate Vice-President, Future Challenges, Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) was a seasoned and successful communicator with many achievements under her belt. Then she decided to change her career's strategic orientation. Along the way she learned many lessons and had numerous insights. As a result of her experiences, she contends that a career in communications offers the knowledge and skills for the jobs of the future. Recently Ottawa IABC members were treated to a talk with Ursula over dinner about her career path and how the experience and skills developed in communications can help you in other potential strategic positions. So that a wider audience might benefit from this conversation, host Angela Prokopiak, caught up with Ursula to recapture some of the highlights from that evening. If you are thinking about spreading your wings and moving beyond the communications world, take advantage of Ursula's words of wisdom. But, caution communicators: After listening to this podcast, you might end up with the sneaking suspicion that the person most responsible for stopping you from making your next career move is looking back at you in the mirror.
