Description

Project and donor contributed description follows: "Sometime between 1987 and 1988, its summertime and the Jabbar family welcomes uncles and aunts and cousins over for a visit to Canada, staying at their apartment in Scarborough ON. Family was always welcome at the Jabbar household and they are happy and willing to stay for weeks at a time despite the small space. As their first visit to Canada, they take them to tourist sites. Pictured here are views of rides at the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE). S’s father, who is the eldest sibling of their generation, attracted a lot of family to visit because it is customary for people to always visit the eldest. Since S's father was the first of his siblings to come to Canada, everyone was excited to visit. It was also quite an accomplishment for a man with a physical disability to seek an independent life overseas for himself and his family so this was often admired. The footage shows how multigenerational the gatherings are, which included S's grandmother who had recently came to live with the family."

Interviews for "Voices from the Odeyak"
-
Description
-
Item is an audio recording of one of a series of interviews done as research for Michael Posluns' book "Voices of the Odeyak". This is a preparatory interview with Marie Symes-Grehan, the Great Whale Hydro task force assistant from the Cree Village of Whapmagoostui, who acted as a coordinator during the voyage. The conversation starts with them relating news about mutual acquaintances, including comments on Alcoholics Anonymous programs aimed at Indigenous people and an incident with a helicopter that was reported on in the news. Michael Posluns then relates the basis of "Voices of the Odeyak" and what work he's done on it so far. He talks about the campaign to save the Great Whale River, negative press about the Cree circulated by Hydro Québec, and they discuss the the contributions of Doris Delaney, Ian Goodman, and Anne Stewart. Marie then recounts how she got involved with the grassroots campaign to save the Great Whale River and the Indigenous communities around it and her impressions of a memorable night during the trip of the Odeyak to New York, when participants had a "collective breakdown". They then discuss Mary Hines, a long-time grassroots campaigner for many causes, an Indigenous community at [Walliston Lake?] that has been manipulated by the Federation of Saskatchewan Indians, and politics about chiefs and the ensuing problems. The audio drops at 00:32:30, then picks up again speaking about a female reporter and the manipulation of the media by Hydro Québec during the voyage.
