Kaie Kellough is a biracial Canadian author of Guyanese ancestry on his mother’s side. Best known as a spoken-word performer on the Montreal arts scene, Kellough has been publishing since 2004. To date, his work has not received much critical attention, but it began to do so in 2020, the year his poetry collection Magnetic Equator won the Griffin Poetry Prize, and his short story collection Dominoes at the Crossroads was longlisted for the Scotiabank Giller Prize. Born in Vancouver in 1975, Kellough grew up in Calgary and established himself in Montreal in 1998, a trajectory that has provided him with lived experience of the Canadian Black diaspora in localities that often occupy the margin of the diaspora’s main

Vorticism and ultraísmo are two avant-gardisms that emerged in London and Madrid respectively in the decade of the 1910s. Vorticism, a cross-disciplinary movement revolving around BLAST magazine, featured notable figures such as Ezra Pound in poetry, Wyndham Lewis in painting and the novel, and Jacob Epstein in sculpture, among others. Peninsular ultraísmo, on the other hand, was mainly associated with the poetry of Guillermo de Torre, Rafael Cansinos Assens, and Jorge Luis Borges. However, painters such as Norah Borges and Rafael Barradas also contributed woodcuts to the journal Ultra.1 Influenced by F.T. Marinetti’s Futurism, both movements celebrated speed, technology, modern city life as well as literary and

<p></p>
On 20 April 2023, American news website The Daily Beast published an article titled “How Joseph Dispenza Seduced America with Pseudo-science” (Shugerman), which critically examined the wide influence of popular “New Age guru” Joe Dispenza. “Dr.” Dispenza preaches a controversial philosophy of self-healing based on the premise that the mind can heal the body, a position he claims is supported by various mainstream scientific research outputs. The author of the article characterizes Dispenza’s claims as “pseudoscience” designed to appeal to a heightened respect for science among his target audience, writing:The combination of climate change, the COVID pandemic, and the Trump presidency has spurred a heightened

I believe that it was in the fall of 1973 that I first heard a recording of Ivan Kozlovsky singing. I was just getting acquainted with Ukrainian community organizations and institutions in Winnipeg and dropped by the Mamaj gift shop on Main Street near the corner of Portage and Main, in the heart of this Prairie Canadian city. I was interested in hearing some Christmas music, and the late Myron Tracz, the proprietor of the shop, suggested that I purchase an LP featuring a prominent Kyivan choir and the soloist Ivan Kozlovsky. I was immediately carried away by that silvery voice on the wide black vinyl disk that we then called “a record.” This recording consisted of Ukrainian folk music of the Christmas cycle with
