Saturday, May 3
7:00 pm
McNally Robinson Booksellers and Livestreamed on Youtube

David Camfield (who teaches Labour Studies and Sociology at the University of Manitoba, is on the editorial board of Midnight Sun and hosts the podcast Victor’s Children) will be discussing his new book Red Flags with Tami Gadir (a researcher from Australia who’s been involved in union, climate and anti-war activity) and Andrew Loewen (a former editor of Briarpatch Magazine and longtime activist on the radical left who now works for a public sector union). 
Red Flags is an anti-capitalist, anti-authoritarian introduction to the history of the USSR, China, and Cuba that asks: Were they actually on the road to communism? Red Flags argues that they were not in fact moving towards communism because social relations remained fixed in class exploitation.

The event will be held in the Atrium of McNally Robinson and also livestreamed on YouTube. This is a mask-friendly event.

With remarks and conversation with Dr. Mark Etkin and Judy Haid
Songs presented by the North End Jewish Folk Choir
& Candle Lighting in Memory of the Six Million

Every year since the end of the Second World War, UJPO has honoured the 1943 uprising of the people living under the jackboots of Nazi occupation in Warsaw. This year our theme will address the trauma of war, and how these ordeals affect people who survive them and generations that follow, with reference to history and today.

Everyone is invited and admission is free. The North End Jewish Folk Choir will present a program of songs of resistance and struggle. 

Mark Etkin BA, MD, FRCPC (Psychiatry), has a long-standing focus on working with people with trauma histories, including HIV-infected individuals in San Francisco in the 90’s, medically-ill patients with significant mental health challenges, core area populations, and homeless people in Manitoba and BC.   He will discuss the complex and multiple aspects of trauma as it relates to the victims and survivors of the Warsaw Ghetto.

Judy Haid is a psychotherapist specializing in marriage and family. She has been in private practice for over 60 years and presently focuses on the connections of the mind, body and emotions to facilitate growth for change, for healing in the specialities of loss, grief and trauma. She created assertiveness training and self-esteem workshops to empower people to facilitate understanding of early wounding. Today, she specializes in resolving couples and family conflicts and teaching skills for effective communication to resolve issues. She was a pioneer in the development of collaborate law with Manitoba lawyers, mental health and financial professionals to bring greater options for separations and divorce. Therapy means changes - “Falling down is part of life. Getting back up is living.
