Drawing on research on Catholic labour activists in the 1940s and 1950s, this talk compares their strategies to those of other ethnic and labour organizations engaged in the postwar campaign against racism and discrimination.&nbsp; It reveals the profound influence of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights on their struggles for civil liberties and socioeconomic rights. These workers dealt with the ambivalence of the collective rights of minorities: while they appealed to the rights of all, they evoked a right to be different, based on a desire to preserve the \u201cracial\u201d and cultural distinctiveness of French Canadians\u2019 identity.&nbsp; The lecture shows how French-Canadian movements have had a lasting impact on debates about collective rights in Canada.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Speaker Bio<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Dr. Rainville\u2019s<\/em><em> research focuses on the history of human rights struggles in Qu<\/em>\u00e9<em>bec, from the postwar years to the Quiet Revolution (1945-1968).
