Waterloo You Never Knew: Life on the Margins
Peek behind the curtain as Joanna Rickert-Hall unearths the
controversial stories that communities own but don’t often share—especially
with others. These are the stories of the marginalized, the famous, the
infamous, the weird and the wonderful—real people who, by choice or by design,
lived on the margins of mainstream existence in a “typical” small Canadian
community. Meet the ex-slaves, the
cholera victims, the grave digging doctor, the séance loving politician, the
rumrunner, and the sorcery practicing healer.
Life as we thought we knew it just got a bit weird. What’s weirder, still….?
OUR
history is YOUR history.
Come inside. This is Waterloo You Never Knew, revealed.
