Jim asked me to re-send this file to the listserv. It unintentionally omitted one name: Baldemar Velasquez (FLOC) as a possible keynote speaker.

Subject: 1919/2019 conference roundtable and keynote names proposed to date
Hi all,
Here is the list of names proposed thus far that I agreed to compile. Apologies for any omissions.
Some people listed under one roundtable might be suitable for another roundtable too.
For those who weren't at Saturday's meeting: we have until Dec. 31 to propose other names for consideration.
Cheers,
David

Hi everyone.
Enclosed please find a bio for Phillip Jennings, the General Secretary of the global union, UNI, I mentioned him briefly on Saturday. I have met him but do not know him well, I have seen him speak and believe he would do a great job as a keynote speaker for our conference.
Regards,
Paul

Hi again. Apologies for the confusion. To be clear, the formal listserv is being created. However, I got the impression on Saturday that some people wanted to move on things, so I decided to forward the most up-to-date list I have.

Hi Paul,
I've received your e-mails but I don't see a listserv address (e.g. 1919conference-l(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:1919conference-l@umanitoba.ca>)
In my view, we need a real listserv on the U of M system, not a string of addresses.
Cheers,
David

Hi all.
You may already have received a version of this morning, but I was having trouble with Krishna's email. Things are looking pretty tidy on my end, but there are a range of email account types (e.g. mts, gmail, cupe), so there may be some variance in encryption, etc.

Hello,
I have just recently found out about this conference taking place in Winnipeg in May to commemorate the centennial of the Winnipeg General Strike.
I am wondering—do you have to be an academic or scholar affiliated with a post-secondary institution to present at the conference? I develop public programming for the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, and would be interested in presenting on the experiences of women during the Strike.
Thank you,

Hi, friends!
My apologies for being a bit silent these last many days. (Got busy, then
ill, but I'm back!)
In any case, I've taken the liberty of adding Jim Naylor and Julie Guard's
recent proposals for keynotes to David's full list. (Thanks for compiling
all of this, David, and keeping us on track as we approach our December 31
deadline for submissions! Please carry on, friend!)
I'd like to add one more name to our set of prospective ROUNDTABLE
speakers:
MAXIMILIANO NAGL GARCEZ
Max, who resides in Ottawa, but spends a good bit of time is Brazil, is:
• a lawyer and legislative consultant for labour unions in Brasília, Brazil
• Director for Legislative Affairs of ALAL – Associación Latino-Americana
de Abogados Laboralistas
• Former Legal Adviser and Coordinator of the Advisory Body of the Workers’
Party caucus in the Brazilian Chamber of Deputies
• Former Legal Adviser for the President of the National Parliament of East
Timor, through UNDP
• Former Visiting Fellow at the Labor and Worklife Program at Harvard Law
School, recipient of a Fulbright scholarship
• MSc in Law of Social Relations, Federal University of Paraná, Brazil
Max is a friend, and has expressed a solid "YES!" in wanting to attend, FYI.
In any case, I hope all are well!
I have a number of pieces on the way, including:
• website skins
• sponsorship packages (following a meeting next week with our
grant/fundraising folks)
• some logo/branding proposals
All my best for now!
