CANADIAN MUSEUM FOR HUMAN RIGHTS — A CALL FOR INCLUSIVENESS, EQUITY AND FAIRNESS
Featured Article #2
The CMHR represents a unique opportunity for Canada to be recognized as a leader in reflecting and further advancing contemporary research on genocide and human rights and in telling the story of all genocides without any attempt to represent the suffering of one nation, tribe or community as having been of more relevance or importance than any other’s. All attempts to do so argue fundamentally do an injustice to the memory of the many millions of victims of genocide throughout the ages, whether they suffered in Europe, or somewhere else.
This article provides you with some basic guidelines, concepts and issues perceived to be important for a proper understanding of item analysis. This pursuit, however, is best appreciated when supplemented with one-on-one or small group mentoring and “real-world” applications, in a safe learning environment.

How did Canada get its name? Most Canadians, if asked about the origins of the name “Canada”, will admittedly lament their ignorance of that part of Canadian history. Of those that do remember, they might even recall the “official” version of how Canada got its name, the one they received from the TV commercial “A Part Of Our Heritage – Canada.” After all, Canadian history is not a subject taught in the schools, per se. Education remains in provincial jurisdiction so each region features their preferred understandings of Canada’s history. As such, there are many competing theories on how Canada came to be known and called. All of them fascinating and equally compelling, but only three theories tend to capture the hearts and minds of historians and researchers more so than the others. They are presented here momentarily.

A Swedish professor and super star of sorts with the locals, Hans Rosling, teaches global health and uses visualization as part of his work to communicate the wealth and health of countries by plotting 120,000 numbers and displaying them on an animated correlation chart which appears before him like a hologram. He is the only individual that I know that communicates this historical progression of life expectancy against wealth for every country since 1810 in the most enjoyable way anyone can think of.

The very first records of printing can be traced back when books were copied by hand and transferred to parchment. Then came the woodblock printing in Europe where a page was cut into wood before being printed out.
The very first records of printing can be traced back when books were copied by hand and transferred to parchment. Then came the woodblock printing in Europe where a page was cut into wood before being printed out. A huge change came in 1400’s when Gutenberg developed the very first printing press where special and never-before-seen equipments were used for the entire process. However, it proved to be too slow and too expensive to print anything. But a breakthrough in printing solutions offered a solution. Together with the creation of computers came one of the fastest modes of printing: Digital printing. ...

The sliding sash window existed in Europe as early as the thirteenth century. During this period windows were no more than vertical sliding timber shutters
By the end of the sixteenth century sash windows had become glazed, horizontally sliding sash windows, and by the mid seventeenth century were superseded with vertical sliding sash windows, introduced mainly in France. This type of window was used in passageways and staircases, as casement windows (which opened inwards) could be an obstruction to the occupants
• It was during the post restoration period, with the nobility returning from France, that much of the sophisticated architecture of the vertical sliding sash window crossed the Channel to England. It is believed that one of the first fully glazed vertical ...
The Interborough Rapid Transit subway, which broke ground in 1900 after many years of political maneuvering, was not the first attempt at transit tunneling in New York City. Several other groups attempted to build tunnel lines with varying degrees of success. Probably the most well known of these early attempts, at least in terms of subway lore, was an 1870 demonstration line, the Beach Pneumatic Transit.
Alfred Ely Beach, inventor and editor of Scientific American, had designed a pneumatic (air-driven) system which he demonstrated at the American Institute Fair in 1867, and he thought it viable for transit operation in underground tunnels. He applied for a permit from the Tammany Hall city government, and after being denied, decided to build the line in secrecy, in an attempt to show that subterranean transit was practical. (He ...
Pylyp Orlyk was born on October 11, 1672 in Kosuta (modern day Belarus) and died on May 26, 1742 in Iaşi (modern day Romania). He was a Zaporozhian Cossack officer, Hetman in exile, diplomat, and secretary to and close associate of Hetman Ivan Mazepa. Pylyp Orlyk first studied at the Jesuit college in Vilnius, Lithuania and until 1694 at the Kyiv Mohyla Academy. In 1699 he became a senior member of Hetman Ivan Mazepa's General Military Chancellery and in 1706 was appointed general chancellor. At that position, he was Mazepa's closest aide, facilitated Mazepa's secret correspondence with the Poles and Swedes, and assisted Mazepa in his efforts to form an anti-Russian coalition. After the Battle of Poltava in 1709, he fled together with Hetman Ivan Mazepa and King Charles XII of Sweden to Bender in the Principality of Moldavia, where Mazepa soon died. Pylyp Orlyk was then chosen by the Ukrainian Cossacks as their Hetman in exile. While in Bender, he wrote the first state constitution in Europe, known as the Constitution of Pylyp Orlyk or the Bendery Constitution.
Michael K. Faught wants to fill in the gaps in the story of the earliest Americans.
The Clovis theory of how the Americas were populated is that migrating big game hunters walked from Asia to Alaska, followed an ice-free corridor through Canada and then chased mastodons, giant sloths and other animals across the continent and into extinction. But scientists working in both Canada and Brazil have uncovered evidence that is inconsistent with the Clovis timeline. Faught agrees with others who propose that when an ice-free corridor did allow access to the interior there were people already on the landscape. Thus there may be more than one kind of Paleo-Indian and they may have come from more than one direction.
The first people to arrive in America are identified by the fluted (grooved at the base) projectile points they made and first found near Clovis, New ...
Jewish battalion in Ukrainian Galician Army
Jewish soldiers in the struggle for a Ukrainian state
By Sviatoslav LYPOVETSKY
The relationships between Ukrainians and Jews have had many examples of both cooperation and misunderstandings, which left an imprint on people’s memory and have survived in our present views. Yet the history of the Jewish Battalion in the Ukrainian Galician Army (UGA) still remains unknown even now, 90 years after it was formed, although the formation of this unit should be taken as a model of interethnic understanding.
THE PHENOMENON OF GALICIAN JEWRY
Speaking of the historical context of Ukrainian-Jewish relationships and their special features in Galicia, one should point out at once that this part of the Ukrainian lands has never seen such a steep escalation of conflicts as in Left- and Right-Bank Ukraine in the times of Bohdan ...
‘There will be no forgiveness’
by James Marson, Kyiv Post, Staff Writer
Thousands came to the Bykivnya mass grave northeast of Kyiv on May 17 to remember an estimated 100,000 victims of Stalin’s repressions.
Late at night at the end of the 1930s, tram number 23 would rattle its way from Kyiv to Brovary with a grim cargo on board: dead bodies. Victims of the NKVD, the predecessor of the KGB, they were on the way to be tossed into mass graves at Bykivnya forest.
On May 17, several thousand people gathered at the memorial center in the forest to mark Ukraine’s Day of Remembrance for Victims of Political Repression and remember those destroyed by the Soviet machine.
“Here, at Bykivnya, Stalin and his monstrous hangmen killed the bloom of Ukraine,” said President Victor Yushchenko in a speech at the event. “There is no ...
