SUMMARY:Military Lecture: The Cold War in Canada by Dr. Sara Matthews
DESCRIPTION:Did you know that the Region of Waterloo is home to a Cold War nuclear shelter? Built in 1966 and designed by the same architectural firm responsible for the CN Tower\, the bunker was constructed to ensure the continuity of government in the event of a catastrophic nuclear strike. Join Dr. Sara Matthews for a discussion about how communities imagined nuclear survival and the role of Canadian Cold War propaganda. Together we will explore the visual communication of public safety and consider the question\, “how is citizenship constructed in relation to threat?” \nDoors open at 6:30 pm and the presentation starts at 7:00 pm\, followed by a question period. \nThe lecture premiered in-person at the Civic Museum\, and online via our Facebook livestream. The recorded conversation is available on Facebook\, YouTube\, and our Museum Everywhere Portal. Guelph Museums’ Military Lecture series is presented in partnership with the Laurier Centre for the Study of Canada. \nWatch The Recording\n\nAbout the Speaker\n \nDr Sara Matthews is Associate Professor in Communication Studies at Wilfrid Laurier University. Working in the field of critical security studies\, her projects explore the relations between visual culture and martial politics as well as how communities craft creative modes of relationality and survival in response to practices of state securitization.
