Smash the Table – April 2023

We ask SRTA members to join us on April 20, 2023 at the St. Norbert Arts Centre for the next seminar in our Smash the Table series of leadership talks!

SRTA Presents “Smash The Table” – Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History

Featuring Arlyn Filewich (Teacher Welfare Department Head, Manitoba Teachers’ Society) and Andrea Zaroda (Teacher Welfare Staff Officer, Manitoba Teachers’ Society.)

Throughout history, “good” women’s lives were largely domestic. Little has been recorded about them because domesticity has not previously been considered a topic that merits inquiry. It is only through unconventional or outrageous behaviour that women’s lives broke outside of this domestic sphere, and therefore were recorded and, thus, remembered by later generations.

Laurel Thatcher Ulrich

In this session, participants will explore HERstory, feminism and the gender politics of the workplace.

When: April 20, 2023, 4:30 pm – 6:00 pm
Where: St. Norbert Arts Centre (100 Rue des Ruines du Monastere, Winnipeg)
