Here, Queer and Maple Syrup
A look into queer Canadian history through the ages.
Episodes
In honour of Pride Month, host Jakob Creighton dives into his journey with queer Canadian history, from the origins in developing a TV series to his Master's thesis. A personal reflection on how his approach is unapologetically Canadian. Maybe even "Very Canadian"?
Exploring the personal, family connections to influential decisions during the AIDS Crisis, particularly with the influence of the American Religious Right and the Thatcherite Section 28.
Examining the erasure of trans folks who had to face the AIDS Crisis without many supports within the healthcare system with overflowing transphobia and the resulting shift from institutional reliance to radical community care.
Exploring the roles of lesbians and other queer women during the AIDS Crisis who are frequently written off as merely "helpers", when in fact they played a much more pivotal role in education, advocacy and as stand-in families.
Examining the impacts of the AIDS Crisis on Indigenous communities and the adoption of the term Two-Spirit.
Exploring the influence of Atlantic Canadian kitchens and how we got a seat at the federal table.
Exploring the scapegoats of the AIDS Crisis and the acts of protest and resilience from all corners of the country.
In this episode, we explore Bill Kovinsky, the first person in Canada known to have died from AIDS, and how learning about his death shifted the timeline of the AIDS Crisis in Canada.
Did the AIDS Crisis really start in 1982 or was that just when we gave it a name? In this episode, we'll explore the early days of AIDS in Canada and abroad!
