   Heritage and Inclusion with the Edmonton Queer History Project

   2SLGBTQ+ histories (Two Spirit, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Trans, and Queer) are often missing from local history texts and public archives, absent from educational curricula, and invisible on urban streets. In Edmonton, the innovative Edmonton Queer History Project (EQHP) (https://www.edmontonqueerhistoryproject.ca/) is working to spotlight these “closeted” stories and places and helping inspire and connect a new generation. In this episode, we speak with Dr. Kristopher Wells and Michael Phair, two of the key members and contributors to the Edmonton Queer History Project. Les témoignages des personnes 2ELGBTQ+ (bispirituelles, lesbiennes, gaies, bisexuelles, trans et queer) font souvent défaut dans les documents d’histoire locaux et les archives publiques; ils sont souvent inexistants dans les programmes d’enseignement et demeurent invisibles dans les rues urbaines. Dans cet épisode, nous nous entretenons avec Kristopher Wells et Michael Phair, deux des principaux membres et contributeurs du Edmonton Queer History Project. Resources, Readings, and More! In recognition of the 25th Anniversary of the Supreme Court of Canada’s landmark human rights decision in Vriend v. Alberta, the Edmonton Queer History Project has helped to produce a ⁠10-part podcast⁠ (https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.edmontonqueerhistoryproject.ca%2Fvriend-versus-alberta&data=05%7C02%7CAGray%40nationaltrustcanada.ca%7Cc7ae85f3def64102205808dc4a871ccd%7C38d15276c9e944e787de3efda3b861d3%7C0%7C0%7C638467191394843590%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=qPXoz1vafH4S82xYlzWZDRqomCpvgIjG9ZUC42HLgYI%3D&reserved=0) exploring the Vriend case and will be releasing a feature documentary film called ⁠Pride vs. Prejudice: The Delwin Vriend Story⁠ (https://can01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pridevsprejudice.com%2F&data=05%7C02%7CAGray%40nationaltrustcanada.ca%7Cc7ae85f3def64102205808dc4a871ccd%7C38d15276c9e944e787de3efda3b861d3%7C0%7C0%7C638467191394850992%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=9%2Fs%2Ftc6z1MWjhgcV5PetrXYADWevLajQWMFz9fmqlt8%3D&reserved=0).
