Transgender Oral History

  • CA OHCUW 22C2-PTOH
  • Collection
  • 2019-2020

This collection contains 5 interviews in total (8hh19mm49ss), conducted by Misha Falk in 2019.

The Transgender Oral History Project emerged out of a recognition that there were significant gaps in queer histories of the prairies, one of which being a tendency to overlook transgender experiences. By recording oral interviews with trans people, this project aims to help historians and community members gain a richer understanding of the lives and work of trans individuals in the region. Since labels for understanding diverse experiences of gender such as “transgender” have changed significantly in recent history and will likely continue to do so, these interviews focus heavily on personal understandings of gender identity.

Debra Barr and Walter Meyer zu Erpen Research and Publication Collection

  • CA UMASC MSS 375 (A11-63)
  • Collection
  • 1989-2007

The collection was arranged in part by the donors themselves in accordance with specifications they provided. Consisting of 168 items including research correspondence, publication drafts, and books containing the published versions, this fonds takes up 0.26 linear metres of shelf space. The items and folders were organized by the donors and are divided by publication. Records bound together by staples, archival clips or other means were done so by the donors and thus are treated as a single record, even those which contain what could be considered more than one document.
