SUMMARY:Oxford Historical Society October 2022 Meeting: Doris Weir – Cold Springs Farm in Thamesford
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Wednesday\, October 26 at 6:30 to hear Doris Weir’s presentation on the Cold Spring’s Farm in Thamesford. The presentation will be held at the Woodstock Museum\, NHS. \nFrom Doris Weir: \n“Mr. Harvey Beaty was a huge employer and contributor to the town of Thamesford and surrounding areas.  He started Cold Springs Farm in 1949 and up to his death in 1994 he created a business with over 100 farms\, processing plants and was starting to build a mini town in Florida. \nWhen I received his memoirs I wanted to ensure everyone knew who he was and what he had done for Thamesford\, Oxford County and many other areas in Ontario\, Michigan and Florida so I digitized the memoirs and created a book for everyone to read and enjoy. \nI will be talking about Mr. Beaty’s memoirs book\, his upbringing\, how he crippled himself (his word) and how he started in to the poultry and feedmill business and more.” \nThis presentation will take place at the Woodstock Museum\, NHS. Doors open at 6:30pm and the meeting will start at 6:45pm. This is a free public meeting\, all are welcome to attend.

SUMMARY:Town of York Historical Society (In-Person and Virtual): "Schooling the System: A History of Black Women Teachers" with Dr. Funke Aladejebi
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to announce the speakers and dates for the Town of York Historical Society’s “Annual Author Series”! Presentations will begin promptly at 7pm and will be followed by a short question and answer period. This year\, you have the option between joining us via Zoom or in-person. \nAbout this event: \nDr. Funké Aladejebi will speak about her most recently published book\, Schooling the System: A History of Black Women Teachers and her exploration of the intersections between race\, gender and access in Canadian educational institutions. \n“Using oral narratives to tell the story of black access and education in Ontario between the 1940s and the 1980s\, Schooling the System provides textured insight into how issues of race\, gender\, class\, geographic origin\, and training shaped women’s distinct experiences within the profession. By valuing women’s voices and lived experiences\, Dr. Funké Aladejebi illustrates that black women\, as a diverse group\, made vital contributions to the creation and development of anti-racist education in Canada.” \nAbout the Author: \nFunké Aladejebi is a scholar of the twentieth century with a specialization in Black Canadian history. In addition to being the author of her newly published book\, Schooling the System\, she is also the co-editor of Unsettling the Great White North: Black Canadian History. Her work explores the importance of Black Canadian women in sustaining their communities and preserving a distinct Black identity within restrictive gender and racial barriers. Dr. Aladejebi has been involved in a variety of community engagement and social justice initiatives in Toronto and her research interests are in oral history\, the history of education in Canada\, Black feminist thought and transnationalism.
