Note:
Robert Creeley visited Vancouver in June 1990 and this series of tapes documents conversations held at Warren Tallman's home over June 1, 2, and 3, 1990. Parts of these group discussions were broadcast by Paul Mutton on Co-op Radio (likely on August 12, 1990). A live event "Tribute to Robert Creeley" was held at the Western Front on June 2, 1990 which was also recorded and broadcast in part. Side A begins with Roy Miki discussing the relationship of place to one's sense of self as well as a concept of mother tongue and its suppression, in dialogue with Adeena Karasick, Tallman, Charles Watts. Later, Miki raises the exampleS of the Meech Lake Accord and Quebec separatism. Robert Kroetsch raises current questions of class and the group discusses urban poverty. Miki tells the story of his stolen thesis. They continue the general discussion of education.
