On this episode of VIEW to the U, Historical Studies prof Elspeth Brown, who joined the faculty at UofT Mississauga in 2000, talks about her archival work preserving the stories of people from the LGBTQ community. We also talk about the history of Pride celebrations, timed with Global Pride that is taking place on June 27, how the origin of Pride has parallels with the current racial upheavals happening at this current moment in time, and how Elspeth is rethinking her own approach to research so as to address the structural inequalities that exist within scholarship that further marginalizes people.  Elspeth obtained her PhD from Yale University's program in American Studies, and she is the author of Work! A Queer History of Modeling (Duke University Press, 2019) and the award-winning The Corporate Eye: Photography and the Rationalization of American Commercial Culture, 1884-1929 (Johns Hopkins 2005). She is an active volunteer and Vice Co-President of the Board at The ArQuives, Canada’s LGBTQ2+ Archives,  the world’s largest queer and trans community archive.A full transcript of the interview is available at https://www.utm.utoronto.ca/vp-research/sites/files/vp-research/public/shared/EBrown-transcribed-June24_0.pdf.
