And I’m sitting here ten years later and reminiscing and it’s such a vibrantly joyful and loving part of my life and I miss the hole that it- y’know it’s left a gap in my life and I really miss that now that it’s- that I’ve retired uh so uh, stopping was never a question [NB: laughs joyfully] AS: That seems like just another way in which you were teaching uh while being your whole self, right? You bring your baggage and your past experiences into it. NB: Mhm AS: Um, yeah. Is there anything else you’d like to tell me about your G.S.A.? NB: I have a whole bunch of pictures! [Nathalie laughs excitedly] AS: Yeah! NB: So [NB: clears her throat], okay, so this one was of when I first decided to set it up. This was in October 2013, as you can see there. What you don’t see there is the original sort of getting people’s attention at first. There was support from the district, I knew that it was fine for me to be doing this, my administration was supportive, there was no obstacles to do it, I just knew that if I just announced on the intercom “There’s going to be a G.S.A. in the school,” People would- kids included, would’ve all said “What’s a G.S.A.?” AS: Yeah NB: Ah, there was, y’know, I needed to build up the awareness first. So I took a page from a colleague who had used this as a trick to advertise some other event in the past. I thought I’d pique everybody’s curiosity, so I took some sheets of paper and one had “L”, “B”, AS: Mhm, “G.” “T.” “A.” yeah… NB: And so long, and “G.” “T.” “A.” yeah, with a few extra words like Ally, and I forget what else. AS: Would questioning maybe have been one of them? NB: Questioning possibly..? I think I had queer? Uh-nuh- I had Q, simply for whatever that would be. So it was just single letters! AS: Okay! NB: All over the school. AS: Mhm NB: What’s going on? AS: Mhm NB: A few days later, I added a little thing with the word, and a little paragraph saying, “Curious? Want to know more? Come to the library Monday at lunch time.” Whatever, so there was a meeting at the Library, I explained “What’s a G.S.A., and here’s what we- y’know, what we could do and it’s gonna be in my classroom” I picked a day of the week, day of the cycle, cause day 4 was easier than AS: Mhm NB: Cause, otherwise, if you pick, if you pick Monday then it’s going to interfere with your duty every now and then, AS: Yes. NB: So, day 4 it was AS: Mhm NB: And…so we had the next meeting, and there was a bunch of kids, and we talked about the LGBTQmunity because there was a pun was, the name that they chose, and so this would have been a week or so or few later [NB: shows AS: a picture of a sign for the LGBTQmunity] “Queer and straight together.” Drop here. “Drop in, Drop ins welcome. Meet here every day 4 at lunch time.” And that little sort of happy face there is sort of my trademark. AS: Okay yeah NB: Yeah, that was the first start. AS: Mhm. And uhhh so, you started off with a meeting in the Library on day 4? NB: Yeah, the - AS: Or it went to day 4 NB: Yeah the meeting in the library was just a one off, it was an information session so, for anybody who just wanted to know what this LGBTQ stuff was about. AS: Yes NB: So we went over that. And we talked about the G.S.A. and the invitation was made, anybody was here or anywhere else, y’know. “There will be a G.S.A. and if you are interested then you can come.” This was not meant, this was a an information for the whole- anybody who wanted to come and as part of the school population. I think we had, like fifty odd kids? Or something in there? It was AS: Okay NB: You got a lot of curiosity going. [Nathalie laughs] AS: Yeah, yeah, definitely! NB: And I can’t remember anymore how many kids actually started coming. AS: Mhm. AS: So what kind of things would these meetings involve? NB: For me I, ah, sometimes we would have a talking circle, sometimes it, a lot of times it was just hang out during your lunch break. Have a chance to sit with your group of friends and chat, an informal eat your lunch- it was their lunch break, how much do 12 year olds really really want to have like a serious meeting time happening at lunch? On a scale of 1-10 the answer is zero! [Nathalie laughs] AS: [Amy laughs] Yeah, absolutely. NB: We e did do occasionally talking circles which had some interesting bits uh, there was one group, probably not right from the start but you know, we’d go around, pass around something as the object and, you could just, you could pass all together, you could just say your name and your pronoun and if you wanted to state your identity you could because for some of them at some time it was like- and I remember when I was coming out I just wanted to shout it from the rooftop, and it was just such a drag that there wasn’t enough of times where people could ask you so you could tell them “I’m a lesbian!” [Nathalie laughs enthusiastically] AS: [laughs] yeah! NB: “So, If you want to tell the world, you can tell us right now!” But also nobody has to because that would also not be right. And then we were looking for just sort of topics that would get people sort of have something, innocuous to sort of just break the ice, and the group settled on “What did you have for breakfast?”. AS: Mhm NB: And they got all kinds of funny things like “The tears of my enemies” or [Nathalie has a burst of laughter] AS: [laughs] Of course! NB: Of course, I would not have picked that because it’s actually a question that could touch an awful lot of nerves. AS: Yeah. NB: If you didn’t have breakfast, if your parents were fighting over breakfast, if y’know, a gazi- if you have a eating disorder, there’s a gazillion reasons why that actually might not be a safe question, but the kids were- had really settled on it and there was enough opportunities to deal with it with enough-with a joke rather than being sort of lay down you got to give me a serious answer that I stayed with it. AS: Yeah. NB: It was theirs. Yeah. [NB: clears her throat]. So that sometimes happened. Much of the time they just wanted to hang out with their friends in a place that felt safe, and that was fine for me as well. AS: Yeah I think there’s a lot of value to those spaces. Um, yeah, giving kids a place to just like be themselves with people that are supportive, um. Yeah, that’s kind of like what uh, what we’ve got at camp. NB: Yes. AS: Um but also what I had from a… a special like Girl Guide troop growing up as a teen. So it’s uh, it’s important. Um… yeah, what do you have to show me? NB: This is back in 20, winter Olympics in 2014- if you’ll remember they were taking place in Russia, and Russia didn't want for people to be visually- AS: Mm yes! NB: Identifying as gay, and there was a lot of sort of blowbacks, and you know it’s a- people in Canada and elsewhere including in St. John’s saying “Hey that’s screwed up and we were gonna speak out about that.” So it was in the news big time, [NB: clears her throat]. So I had, we talked about it and I had a display in my classroom [NB: shows AS: a picture of a display in her former classroom]- there’s a pride flag and underneath here is a French quote- but you speak French so I’m not even gonna translate it for you, it’s taken from the Olympic charter “La pratique du sport est un droit de l’homme.” [NB: raises her eyebrows at AS: ] AS: [Laughs as she says] Yeah NB: *“Chaque individu doit avoir la possibilité de faire du sport sans discrimination d’aucune sorte et dans l’esprit olympique, qui exige la compréhension mutuelle, l’esprit d'amitié, de solidarité et de fair-play.” And I’m pretty sure that there was a full cohort of kids at my school that came out of the Olympics with the idea that somehow Olympics and Pride was connected- and they might not have known why, but there was a lot of stuff all over the class- all over the school! AS: [Laughs] Yeah NB: So I remember the the, y’know, there was Olympic excitement and people were decorating their door- their classroom doors and stuff, and the number of classroom doors that had, in addition to the Olympic visuals, also included really strong Pride flags everywhere. I’m pretty sure there’s kids who to this day can’t remember why, but they’re sure there’s a connection. [NB: laughs] AS: [AS: laughs] Yep. [AS: laughs some more] Oh that’s funny. You know, I wouldn’t have thought that the Olympics were a queer icon but here we are. *You can find this quote sur page 9 dans le “Rapport annuel du CIO 2014” Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Charles Henry Danielle Description An account of the resource Charles Henry Danielle was born on November 1st, 1830, in Baltimore, Maryland. He moved to Newfoundland in the 1860s, self-advertising as a “dancing instructor and fancy dressmaker.” While he owned a variety of businesses over the years until his death in 1902, the most memorable artistic and profession pursuit of his was the Octagon Castle hotel at Octagon pond, Topsail, in 1896. He operated this establishment until his death in 1902. But rather than have a somber funeral, he chose to make his own casket and host a party instead (or, really, have his attendees party). Allegedly, 10,000 people gathered to witness his procession, and there were fights to view his casket. Though he never married, Danielle did have an heir, Frederick A. Brazil. He assisted and worked for Danielle in the last few years of Danielle’s life, and is recorded as having been legally adopted a year before Danielle’s passing. Danielle’s avoidance of matrimony is likely because of his queerness — an old friend of his, C.H. Waugh, once wrote to Brazil that Danielle “was a great lover of men. He used to hug and kiss them and want to sleep with them. I did not like this, But there was much about him that I did like.” There are sporadic records of Danielle’s life, and in all likelihood, not all have been found yet. And while there are only a few accounts of his death, the surviving depictions of his funeral point to a loved, cherished, (and probably even envied), man. Still Image A static visual representation.
