-
Description
-
Recording consists of a concert "Strong Women: Power and Protest" hosted by Rosalie Sorrels. Sorrels begins with a recitation of a poem by Colette "Freedom" (00:00:00-00:06:40). The host (Rosalie Sorrels) then sings a song (00:07:00-00:10:52). The next participant Sarah Ogen Gunning from Kentucky introduces herself and her perspective as a poor woman from Kentucky and then talks about her own protest songs against coal operators but then is encouraged by co-panelists to sing the old spiritual "Oh Death" (00:11:00-17:40). Next the host prompts Alanis Obomsawin to discuss Canadian oppression of Indigenous women. Instead Obomsawin sings an unnamed song (Bush Lady?) (00:17:56-00:22:30). Sweet Honey from the Rock sing an acapella song "I Won't Crumble with You If You Fall" next (00:22:31-00:26:30). Ola Belle Reed is then prompted to sing and introduces herself as a "free spirit" and sings a bluegrass standard "Only the Leading Part Will Do" (00:26:50-00:33:36).Next Sarah is prompted to sing another song, "The Broken Engagement." (00:35:11-00:38:42). There is then a gap in the recording. The remainder of the workshop's recording picks up mid-sentence where Alanis Obomsawin speaking about the wholistic education that Indigenous peoples across the country learn from the land and the role of language in ascribing value, gender, and social roles (00:39:22-00:43:24). Sweet Honey from the Rock immediately start singing "Joanne Little" (00:43:25-00:47:33). All the participants of the workshop sing "A Woman" (00:47:40-00:50:15). Next Sorrels(?) sings a song about an alley cat (00:50:30-00:56:20). Next Ola Belle Reed speaks in response to Obomwasin's story about leaving home and shares her experience leaving her mountain home and then sings a love song. Rosalie Sorrels then ends the workshop abruptly.

Burke family videos : Christmas '92 : Singing
-
Description
-
A video clip recording representing a portion of the VHS cassette from 1992 consisting of a brother cooking breakfast on Christmas and a sister filming a tour of the house. Project and donor(s) contributed description follows: "It’s Christmas, 1992, and within the short span of this clip the presence of almost Leah Burke’s whole family is felt. From her dad offscreen singing along to gospel (Mahalia Jackson’s ‘Go Tell It On the Mountain), to her brother, the then sullen teenager, seen cooking pancakes for family breakfast, to finally Leah, who weaves through the house filming. She reveals herself as the documentarian in a mirror reflection waving ‘Hi’. In present day, Leah recalls, ‘This is a typical Burke house family moment’."

Burke family videos : Christmas '92 : Sunrise
-
Description
-
A video clip recording representing a portion of a VHS cassette from Christmas Day in 1992 featuring the narration of a sunrise and featuring panning shots of a snowy street and building in Peterborough. Project and donor(s) contributed description follows: "'This is Friday, Dec 25th, 1992,' Leah’s dad, Sam, begins the voice-over in this clip made in the Burke’s family home in Peterborough, ON. Her father describes the beautiful sunrise that clear Christmas morning. It contrasts the weather from just a week prior when there was a record breaking 70 cm of snow, which was the worst snowfall in the province in 90 years. This filming style and voice-over in the Burke’s home movies was characteristic of her father, Leah says, 'He wouldn’t wait for anybody, he would just start filming.'"
