    Dr. Adele Perry (sher/her) is a distinguished professor of history and women’s and gender studies. She is a historian of colonialism, imperialism, transnationalism, gender, sexuality, racism, and western Canada in the 19th and 20th centuries. 

    Perry has published On the Edge of Empire: Gender, Race, and the Making of British Columbia, 1849-1871; Colonial Relations: The Douglas-Connolly Family and the Nineteenth-century Imperial World; and Aqueduct: Colonialism, Resources, and the Histories we Remember.

Applying a historical perspective to contemporary human rights issues, Perry has challenged racism in healthcare delivery and in her own profession, along with barriers to library access for people who are homeless.

Pauline has a Masters in Social Sciences from the University of Glasgow, and a PhD in Peace and Conflict Studies from the University of Manitoba. Her PhD explored how educators in Manitoba understand and experience Indigenous and settler relationships in Canada. Before joining the Centre, Pauline worked with IN●GAUGE at the College of Nursing, the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, and the Arthur V. Mauro Institute for Peace and Justice.
