During Black History Month, Know History was honoured to welcome members of the Black Cultural Centre for Nova Scotia, alongside invited cultural and museum leaders, to our Bank Street office for an afternoon of conversation, connection, and shared learning.

We are proud to collaborate with the Mohawk Council of Kahnawà:ke, the Kanien’kehá:ka Onkwawén:na Raotitióhkwa Language and Cultural Center, and Dr. Gerald Taiaiake Alfred on the vital work of collecting and preserving oral histories that reflect the lived experiences, cultural teachings, and perspectives of community members from Kahnawà:ke.

In June 2025, the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre (SLCC) in Whistler, British Columbia, unveiled its revitalized permanent exhibition.

On August 24th, members of the Know History team proudly participated in Ottawa Pride 2025.

We are thrilled to partner with TheirStory—a powerful end-to-end digital storytelling platform that captures and preserves lived experiences and oral history.

Know History extends heartfelt congratulations to Brenda Reynolds, who recently received the United Nations’ prestigious Nelson Mandela Award for her lifelong dedication to advancing Indigenous rights, mental health, and trauma-informed care.

Know History is now offering our archival research and statement gathering resources for free online. These guides provide valuable frameworks for planning archival research projects and statement gathering projects related to finding missing and disappeared children and unmarked burials associated with Indian Residential Schools.

Know History recently attended the 2025 Association of Canadian Archivists (ACA) Conference at Carleton University in Ottawa, where we joined fellow professionals in reflecting on the past 50 years of archival work and imagining the next 50.
