On National Fantasy: Truth and Reconciliation for Beginners

  • Fort Point Museum 100 Fort Point Rd LaHave Canada (map)

Join us for a talk by Seán Kennedy, a settler scholar, professor of Irish literature, and scavenger artist who lives on the South Shore.

This talk explores what nations are, what fantasy is, and how they combine in the form of national fantasies. What is Canada’s national fantasy of itself, and what would it mean to reconcile ourselves to difficult truths that might threaten that fantasy?

Later Event: June 20
