Season 2 of the RCRM Speakers Series explores various aspects of loss in the context of military conflict. When this topic attracts scholarly attention, the unthinkable is often revealed. Complex facets of the dynamic between mourning and commemoration, deprivation and rejection or disposal of war by-products surface. All of it leaves undeniable traces on the communities found in the path of the clash. The series ran in two parts: from January to June and after a two-months summer break, from September to November 2021. Each talk premiered on the museum YouTube channel, followed by a podcast episode released three weeks later.

"A Fitting Tribute": Some Southwestern Ontario War Memorials
Season 2, Episode 7 In this episode, Michael Baker discusses war memorials in southwestern Ontario and what has happened to these memorials, now that many years have passed since the end of those two conflicts. While most Canadians are familiar with the cenotaph, they are but one type within a range of memorials that appeared to honour soldiers in the years following both world wars. Others included public buildings and parks, as well as a variety of monuments. It was also common for schools, churches, office buildings, and even factories to enshrine a list on their walls of those students, parishioners or staff members who had volunteered to serve their country. A graduate of University of Western Ontario with degrees in history and education, Michael Baker is well known to the regional historians as the Collections Curator at Fanshawe Pioneer Village, and the Curator of Regional History at Museum London, but also as the editor of Downtown London: Layers of Time (1999) and the co-editor with Hilary Bates Neary, of 100 Fascinating Londoners and Street Names of London - An Illustrated Guide , both published by James Lorimer of Canada. He is a former president of the London Branch of the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario and of the Heritage London Foundation and a past President of the Elgin Historical Society.
