The history of Indian Residential Schools is foundational to understanding Canada as it is today. In British Columbia, learning about residential schools is part of the curriculum from elementary school onwards, but that is not the same across Canada or the U.S., who have their own history of American Indian Boarding Schools — or even

I’ve been book blogging for more than a decade, and in that time, I’ve seen attitudes shift. In the early days of book blogging and BookTube, there was definitely some elitism in the reading community — which makes sense, because before the bookish internet, book media was mostly made up of critical reviews. Young adult

Last night, the winners of the 33rd Annual Lambda Literary Awards (affectionately called “the Lammys”) were announced via a virtual ceremony. Lambda Literary began its mission when L.

In the past month, Israel’s illegal dispossession of Palestinians in Sheikh Jarrah has led to increased tensions and violence in Palestine.

I have regularly lamented about the lack of opportunities to get books into hands at my library job (more often than not, my job focuses on technology assistance). Suggesting books to readers is one of my favorite things to do, and the lack of folks asking for recommendations at my job has led me to

Romance books have given me so much for the past years. Where would I be without them? Thank god I don’t have to find out, because each year thousands of romance books are being published and brightening up my day.

I’ve been working in books and publishing since 2004, I’ve been a sci-fi/fantasy fan since my mom read us The Hobbit, complete with voices and songs, and I still manage to mix up my Hugos with my Nebulas, fail to remember which formerly-known-as award is now called what, and lose track of newly-created awards. So,

I’ve never lived in an area with an abundance of independent bookstores. We did have a few used bookstores when I was younger, but they’ve all since gone extinct from suburbia. For the majority of my life, Indigo — Canada’s largest chain bookstore — has been the only real bookstore I’ve had to call “my

Libraries across the country have been having Drag Queen Story Hours for several years now, and some have had pushback within their communities as well as protests. This time, the concerns come from an event scheduled in Haddonfield, New Jersey. The Haddonfield Friends of the Library (FOL) organized a members-only, Zoom Drag Queen Story Time

“Sometimes, it’s nice to watch something simplistic,” a relative of mine remarked after we had rewatched The Harvey Girls, a 1946 movie musical starring Judy Garland. This comment caught me by surprise, because I didn’t view The Harvey Girls as simplistic at all. Its emphasis on marriage as a (good) woman’s ultimate goal, its villainous

Ever since a certain video game was announced in 2012 and the eventual cluster of a release last year, the word cyberpunk has been on a lot of people’s lips and sparking a lot of questions (and Twitter debates with fanboys). What is cyberpunk and where did it come from? What makes something fit into

The U.S. is a lot more diversity-conscious today than we were back when our most beloved comic book characters were created. As a result, without intervention from modern showrunners, superhero adaptations would continue to reflect the dubious morals of bygone eras. Sometimes, this intervention results in the creation of new characters of color, like Arrow‘s
