Sylvia Hamilton: A Dalhousie Original
Trying to sum up Sylvia Hamilton with one title is near impossible; after all, she’s an award-winning filmmaker, writer, journalist, public speaker, poet and activist. But regardless of medium, she always encourages people to ask questions they’ve never asked before. Now a professor in the School of Journalism at King's, she tries to give students a different perspective than she was taught, to “not to live in the tiny corner of the world,” as she puts it. And as a documentary filmmaker — perhaps the work for which she is best known — she urges audiences to do the same.
Nova Scotia artist Holly Carr has designed exclusive anniversary line featuring scarves, ties and other items — the first of which are now available from the Dalhousie Bookstore.
