Barbra Mann Wall: Race, Religion, and Nursing: Using Voyant Tools to Investigate Nurses in Missions Fields

This paper is a retrospective reflection on issues of race and positionality through the lens of the global engagement of nursing. I define positionality as the idea that personal values, views, and location in time and space influence how one understands and interprets the world. The paper explores how, and to what degree, persistent racial concerns animated both Black and White Baptists at the convention levels as they engaged in medical missions in the post-civil war years in the American South.

10h30-12h30 : Panel Vera Roberts – Vera Roberts’ Panel

(Sur/by Zoom) Conférence de - Keynote by Laurie Meijer Drees (Vancouver Island University): “Tth’xwat tun hluptun” (Wash your eyelashes): Thoughts on finding and presenting reconciled histories of healthcare

This presentation explores how scholars might engage with “another history of healthcare”. A narrow understanding of healthcare bureaucracies and professions can no longer serve as the primary foundational piece of healthcare history in Canada. Based on two decades of research into Indigenous experiences in Canada’s Indian Hospital system and subsequently Canada’s public health care systems, it is obvious that patient, family, community, and non-professional health care workers offer a very compelling lens through which to view what constitutes health, care, and healthcare in this country. Historians must recognize that the core of their profession is being challenged by such viewpoints. How can those challenges be met? Using Coast Salish concepts as a starting point, we must face a reconciled vision for medical historiography as a way of moving forward into a more inclusive writing of healthcare history.


(Table-ronde) La vision de Vera Roberts : un soutien continu à la recherche historique sur les soins infirmiers dans le Nord – (Round table) Vera Roberts' Vision: Continuing Support for Northern Nursing Historical Research

The purpose of the Vera Roberts Endowment is to fund research and publications on the history of nursing in Canada with a priority on Canadian circumpolar regions (North of the 60th parallel). To date, the Endowment has funded a wide range of topics that explore the tensions and conflicts of northern nursing from a historical perspective. Yet many aspects of northern nursing are in need of further investigation, for which Vera Roberts’ endowment funds are available. The Special Session will begin with a brief overview of Vera Roberts' vision followed by a series of questions directed to the panel about their experiences as researchers in northern/remote regions. The session will conclude with a general discussion about ways to promote and encourage historical research in this area.
