Saturday Love (Jailo Redo)

Hey! Welcome to this recording of us, the Rez Project team, sittin’ around our office, eating snacks, and answering questions which you all—first year students in McGill residences—asked this year during Gender, Sexuality, and Consent workshops in Fall 2017 and Race and Colonialism workshops in Winter 2018. We’ll introduce ourselves as we go and in this first podcast, we’ll talk about some general stuff about Rez Project. What’s the intention behind this project? What are our jobs as coordinators like, and how did we get here? What is Rez Project’s place on campus? And what is the point of all this stuff, anyway? 

We will also be releasing a few more recordings like this one, each about an hour long, covering more of your questions (there were lots of questions; there are 3000 of you who sent us feedback!) While today we’re talking about the Project as a whole, in the future we’ll be talking about questions more directly related to the material of the workshops. In the meantime, don’t forget to follow us on social media, and email us as rezproject.residences@mcgill.ca.

HERE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE ANSWER IN THIS EPISODE (time stamps are in parentheses):

1. Opening Stuff (2:15-5:56) 
•	What are you doing/studying at McGill? 
•	How did you get involved with Rez Project? How can I? 
•	Where else can we ask anonymous feedback? 

2. About the Workshop (5:56-16:34) 
•	What is the point of this workshop? Why was this relevant? 
•	How can I attend more events like this in the future? 
•	What exactly does fostering safe(r) spaces mean?
•	Why do people identify the way that they do? 
•	What should you do if you’re uncomfortable listening to this workshop?   

3. About the Workshop's Logistics (16:34-29:07) 
•	Please oh please can this workshop be shorter! PLEASE. 
•	Could this possibly happen in several smaller seminars? Could it please not cover all these topics at once? Could we have it at a different time of the day, or not tonight because I have an exam tomorrow/a desire to hit Café Campus tonight/a life to live?!
•	Could this workshop be before Frosh, or earlier in the year at least? 
•	This was super boring! This comes off as patronizing! If you don’t agree with this workshop, then you’re made to feel like a bad person! This workshop is negative and sad! Why does this workshop make white men feel bad? 
•	Why can’t I test out of this? Why is this not a class? Why is this not graded?  
•	Why won’t you let rez students organize this? 
•	Why isn’t this project offered in languages other than English? 

4. About General Concepts in Rez Project(29:07-40:25) 
•	(In reference to the Empathy Video), is it bad to be sympathetic? Can empathy be unhelpful? 
•	Can a bystander be held responsible for a situation they witnessed but did not intervene? When is it not safe to intervene? 
•	How is capitalism related to ideologies of ignorance, i.e sexism/homophobia. Is it directly influential or indirect, or is the relationship less obvious? 
•	What’s the difference between situational privilege (like, affirmative action) and systemic privilege?

JUST BREATHE (butterflies) by Mallika Chopra. Read by the Author - Audiobook Excerpt

Women are too often discouraged from discussing the taboos surrounding their bodies. These topics are often thought to be reserved for closeted discussions between patients and doctors. However, Tori Ford, the founder and Editor in Chief of Medical Herstory, believes otherwise.  

Join us in this 2 part series of Medical Herstory as Tori shares her own personal experience navigating Canada’s healthcare system, the repeated disbelief and minimization she received, and how these experiences eventually led to the creation of Medical Herstory; a web-based platform offering a glimpse into female-presenting people’s experiences related to their health and wellness. 

Tori Ford is an MPhil student in Health, Medicine, and Society at the University of Cambridge. She holds a BA in Gender, Sexuality, Feminist, and Social Justice Studies with minors in History and the Social Studies of Medicine from McGill University. Her research and activism focus on gender health equity. Tori is a proud recipient of the McGill Scarlet Key Award and the Cambridge Vice-Chancellor’s Social Impact Award for her initiative: Medical Herstory.
